Trekking Pebbled Paths With Jesus

Thirty-nine. That number represents a crucial fact concerning God's Word. There are thirty-nine books in the Old Testament. Each book, from Genesis to Malachi, points to Jesus, our New Testament. Some say that the Old Testament is the New Testament concealed, and the New Testament is the Old Testament revealed. Trekking Through Pebbled Paths... includes thirty-nine daily devotions and journal question pages to reveal Jesus' character and attributes and compel readers not only to fall in love with the Savior but also trust His teachings.

Have you stood at a crossroads in life and wondered which path to take? Do you long for guidance, true friendship, and loyal love? Are you tired of trekking along life's paths and stumbling over pebbled with problems and pain? Try Jesus. He promises never to leave nor forsake you, and Christ knows how to get you safely home.

The One who bid Peter walk on water, turned water to wine, healed the blind, enabled a paralyzed man to walk, and raised His best friend from the dead is well able to walk with and carry you and me across pebbled life paths.

The same voice and presence that coaxed Peter onto a rapid, swirling surface of water drew crowds who traveled via paths. People trekked across desert land, rock-ridden roads, and rivers to witness the One whose doctrine rang with authority, who taught and performed miracles. Some throughways were well-worn and wide from frequent use. Others, narrow trails. Each method of travel shared a standard reference as a 'way.' The curious, conscience-stricken, those seeking healing, and opposers were led to the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Citizens from Egypt, Syria, Phoenicia, and Greece journeyed via varied means. Some by foot, others perched atop a stubborn animal, or privileged to ride in a carriage. Citizens and foreigners alike trekked a pebbled path (with life's afflictions) toward Jesus.

This writer prays readers will perceive Jesus as their escort to the presence of God, the very essence of the Father, truth, and life, and relish in the Savior's love. May they recognize the Lord's power and rest in Him. When your way is strewn with rough life pebbles, trek a pathway to peace with Jesus.
