Let Go and Let God

September 28, 2026

The weather forecast was calling for 80+ degree temperatures again, so it was time for us to hit the road again! But this time we were determined to make a change both in our traveling pace and in our daily routine. The goal was to spend less time driving and more time with God, reading and studying His Word.

And I was determined to relax more and enjoy each day fully.

The first day of a new trip is always filled with the rush of packing those last-minute things and securing the cabin. Then we filled up with gas and purchased a bag of ice for the beverage cooler. While at the gas station, a guy at a pump across from us caught my attention and said he had just checked our Facebook page and wished us safe travels. I hope he is traveling safely as well.

We got back on the interstate and about an hour down the road we encountered the half of a house shown in the photo. It took up 2 lanes of traffic! And it was only half of the home!

Terry and I are so blessed that we both feel comfortable travelling in such a small space, containing only our “essentials.” We have just enough electrical power to run the tiny fridge and his coffee maker, charge our phones and tablets, and cook a little. We have a very comfortable bed to sleep in and enough room to relax.

We don’t have a particular destination in mind for this trip. And that’s okay. Because we know He will guide us where we’re supposed to go.

Proverbs 16:3, “Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.”

Philippians 4:19, “And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.”

Thank you, God, for allowing us to travel. Help us to share your love with those we meet. Amen.
