Emmaus

     I just had the most lovely experience as a pilgrim in the Greater Dayton Walk to Emmaus. I came away with so much and am still processing much of what I heard, saw and experienced. I will tell you this our Lord is a gentleman, he does not push himself on us. What a blessing that is.  He meets us where we are at and he woos us. And because of this I declare: As for me, when I am poor and feeling heavy, your help, O Lord, will lift me up. I wait patiently, trusting that you will lift me up.      This experience was like a great housekeeping experience. You know those dust bunnies in the corners behind the furniture (good things in your heart) well the Holy Spirit did some sweeping. I woke to realize that He honored a prayer from months ago, when I confessed I didn't know how to move shame out of my heart. He moved it and I am surrounded by a host of witnesses who are praying that I leave it in his capable hands. 
     An Emmaus walk is a personal journey into a deeper relationship with our Lord and Savior. I encourage anyone seeking a more intimate walk with our Lord to consider an Emmaus Walk. In a year, I would be honored to sponsor you.
