We have been staying on the "Smiths Ranch" our own little corner of, Paradise ,when off the road.Here we stay in our R.V where we can rest,exercise and refuel till our next little 'launch out' w/the Lord. Little did I know 10 yrs ago when I took the Lords invitation to " Come ride w/Him" that it would be "literal". We have been riding w/him since,watching his kingdom come in the most unlikely places and in the hearts of the most unlikely people. He is revealing Himself ,his beauty,love and compassion to a Fatherless generation,and they are responding w/passion and brokeness to his call.It is a Beautiful thing to behold. Is 51:3 says" Indeed,the Lord will comfort Zion;He will comfort all her waste places,and He will make her wilderness like Eden and her desert like the garden of the Lord; joy and gladness shall be found therein,thanksgiving and the voice of melody.
While in the CZ Rep we had need of some shelter,we were given this address and told while it may be in a small village, it,was a good price. Our GPS brought us through small wood paths and feilds and we were getting a bit nervous.we finally came to what looked like a very Big Junk yard,equiped w/junk yard dog. we were about to turn around when a lovley young girl in riding gear waved and singled us in to the gates. Now I was getting really nervous,she came up to us and what appeared to say in Cz/english,come I'll show you,good you have come. well being good Americans we didn't want to appear rude,so off we followed. I'll tell ya it wasn't getting any better for me,as we turned a corner we came upon a fenced area with sheds and Goats running around. There she told us to park our car and proceeded to walk into a hallway across from us.I stayed in the car,brave adventurer that I am) and sent Al to spy out the land. Al came back giving me the heads up,I gingerly came out of the car and grabed a suitcase . I was amazed @ the beautiful tiled hall that met me after crossing a not so lovley doorway and porch! Our room was large,comfortable w/kitchenett,patio(over looking the goats) and comfortable beds. I shot up a grateful prayer and comment about being in a stable like him,in retun the Lord spoke,yea,not to shabby huh! ( Yes he really talks to me this way sometimes lol)The Lesson: Do not fear togo through what appears to be narrow doors that I may provide @ times. A little flesh may get scraped off in the process and you may have to get squeezzed just a tad getting through,but I usually have a great big open place for you on the other side to enjoy! Amen Lord :D
