Download or read book TRAVELING WITH THE LORD written by Jan Boys and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2005-09-28 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An ancient spiritual maxim says, ‘Find God in all things.’ Jan Boys is one of those rare people who does. This engaging book about her travels (geographical and spiritual) invites us to think about our personal travels and reminds us that in the complexity of nature we can see the simplicity of God.” Bernard Brady, Ph.D., Professor of Theology, University of St. Thomas, Minnesota, author of A Spiritual Field Guide. Are you seeking God’s presence in your life? Perhaps you’re retired or a traveler. Do you long for greater significance and purpose in your journeys? If so, then TRAVELING WITH THE LORD will appeal to you. Be prepared to find the Lord within its pages, and then listen for the still small voice of God. While standing on a bridge over a turbulent river with shifting currents and swirling whirlpools, most people stop for a few moments, glance down, and see only water rushing below. “On the other hand,” Jan Boys’ husband Gene observes, “Jan stood on the bridge over the waters of Deception Pass in Washington State for fifteen minutes or more, studied the turbulent scene, and then wrote about God’s presence in the tumultuous times of life.” “Picking a Path Through Turbulence” is one of twenty-five reflective stories in TRAVELING WITH THE LORD: An Emmaus Journey to the Pacific Northwest. This series of reflections -- a bit of travelogue and treasure hunt -- is drawn from the sights, sounds, and events of the Boys’ two six-month journeys covering more than 37,000 miles. Jan explains, “I create word pictures of places and events from our trips, describe how they relate to life, then listen and search for the presence of God.” While dry camping and enjoying the desert’s vibrant sunset, or craning her neck and tearfully gazing up at towering redwoods, or admiring massive majestic mountains, or savoring the tranquility of the ocean surf, God whispered and she heard, again and again. A sampling of the twenty-five reflections from the desert to the redwood forest, from the mountains to the ocean shore includes: “Finding God in the Desert” ...... Rio Rancho, New Mexico “Our Pilgrimage of Prayer” ...... The Grotto, Portland, Oregon “On Waves and White Noise” ... Olympic National Park “Facing My Fears” ................. Riding the Hiawatha Bike Trail “Firm Foundations” ............... Glacier National Park "The Towering Cathedral” ........ The California Redwoods “Never Forget Your Dreams” .... The Black Hills Of South Dakota “God’s Survival Plan” ............. Mount St. Helens Revisited Jan describes this as “finding God in the everyday stuff of life.” She sees more than the sight or event itself. God uses it as a teaching tool, a parable to speak to Jan’s soul and to encourage her to listen for His still small voice. TRAVELING WITH THE LORD: An Emmaus Journey to the Pacific Northwest will appeal to those seeking God’s presence in their lives, to travelers, retirees, and anyone longing for greater significance and purpose in their journeys. • Use these reflections and stories to hear the whisperings of God as Jan did. • Use them as a travel guide. Visit the same places yourself, look around with new eyes, and see what God reveals to you. • Use them as a steppingstone to enable you to find your own sense of purpose and ways to leave a legacy. Jan encourages all of us. “We are pilgrims on a journey to our heavenly home. In all your own wanderings and experiences, travel with the Lord, look for Him in the everyday stuff of life, and listen for the still small voice of God. Come, take a journey and go TRAVELING WITH THE LORD.”
