I'm On Vacation...- Part 2



In our last devotion we discovered that God said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”

Now, Let’s put the shoe on the other foot.  Your Foot.

When God calls you what does He hear?   “I'm on Vacation.  Leave a message at the beep.”

Do we get so busy with our play that we forget to pray?

We must remember that when we are on Vacation we are out of our normal environment and we are exposing ourselves and our loved ones to a lot more danger than we realize.

This is when we really need God’s protection and yet we forget to ask.

We not only overlook our own need for God help and love, but we get so distracted with our play that we overlook the needs others have for God.

Let’s make an all-out effort to put God first in everything we do on our Vacation.  After all, He is on Vacation with us.  Isn’t He?

Here are some things that you may do on your Vacation to help you to not forget your Lord.

Hold family devotions in the morning at breakfast.  John 13:34-35

Visit a soup kitchen, or mission, or homeless shelter in the town you are visiting.  Matthew 25:31-46

Give thanks at every meal including at the restaurant.  1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

Thank you Lord, for Your Divine Protection.

Lead us each day in the way You want us to go while we are on Vacation together. Amen.
