Who has time these days to search for God?
Breaking away from the rat race to get a new perspective isn't new. Abraham, Jacob, Moses, David, John the Baptist,
Paul, and, of course, Jesus all stumbled into the wilderness while they were looking for God. Exploring new spiritual
boundaries can get us in shape for some tough patches down the road. Seeking God in the wilderness can leave you
breathless.
If you are ready for an adventure, prepare to get a bit lost out there, to test your
boundaries, to find God in some amazing places, and to discover you're stronger
than you thought you were.
