TRAVEL WITH HUMILITY=AND=LEAVE THE OUTCOME UP TO GOD



















TRAVEL WITH HUMILITY=AND=
LEAVE THE OUTCOME TO GOD


We think we are HOT STUFF=
We think we have=
A lot of great ideas


But the REALITY IS=NOT everyone
Will welcome us in life=not
Everyone will say “YES” to
OUR great ideas


Or AGREE with our DEEPLY
Held thoughts and convictions


“Whatever place does not welcome you
Or LISTEN to you


Leave there=and shake the dust
OFF of your feet.........” Mark 6:11


In a way=it is a RELIEF
To read these words=as Jesus
SENDS OUT the twelve


It certainly EXPLAINS a lot
About the REACTION we get
From some people in this world


And it is a relief to KNOW
That we aren't the first
To get this reaction


Jesus and his FOLLOWERS
Were greeted in this SAME WAY


Travel with HUMILITY=
Leave the outcome
UP TO GOD


“In your majesty
Ride forth VICTORIOUSLY


In the cause of truth=
HUMILITY=and justice
Let your right hand


Achieve awesome deeds” Psalm 45:4


“WISDOM'S instruction
Is to fear the Lord


And humility
Comes BEFORE HONOR” Proverbs 15:33


“By the HUMILITY and
Gentleness of Christ
I appeal to you---------


I-Paul---------
Who am “timid”
When face to face with you


But”BOLD” toward you
When away” 2 Corinthians 10:1


In this BUSY and narcissistic world=
People don't want to even
GREET YOU=let alone
Spend time with you


It HURTS=
To be received this way


But Jesus says=to
DUST OFF the reception=
KEEP up the journey=and keep on
MOVING FORWARD with an open heart


And LEAVE the OUTCOME
Up to God


“REMEMBER your leaders
Who spoke the WORD of God
To you


Consider the OUTCOME
Of their way of life
And IMITATE their FAITH


Jesus Christ is SAME yesterday=
And today=and FOREVER” Hebrews 13:7-7


“For it is TIME
For judgment to begin
With God's household


And IF it begins with us-
What will the OUTCOME BE
For those who-
Do NOT obey=
The GOSPEL OF GOD?” 1 Peter 4:17


Keep moving forward=and TRAVEL
With HUMILITY


OFFER love and compassion=
Do good works=and SPREAD
The GOSPEL with your life


Leave success/failure and THE results
UP TO GOD


And always=ALWAYS=
Travel with HUMILITY


In the names of Jesus and HIS most LOVING and GLORIOUS FATHER
