We have spent several days at Canton Texas for First Monday Trade Days. I’ve never been to this event that began in the 1850’s. However my father came here in his early 20’s. Long before I was born he was walking through the original area looking for the perfect world class coon hunting dog.
Oh beloved God speaks to my heart. Long before we knew the places we’d go the Lord walked before us. His Spirit prepared the way. And even if we don’t know who, our ancestors walked before us as well. They helped to make this country free and profitable. Jesus walked through and made our way free and profitable beyond the natural.
God wants you to know what as long as you follow Him you will be blessed. And you will find your way. He also wants you to know that even the ground you walk on is sacred. All because of Jesus.
This trade grounds looks nothing like it did when my dad was a young man. But the joy of knowing he was here is special. So too the Son of Man walked in your shoes so that even if things look different, His gift makes your steps safe and blessed.
God loves you and He’s for you. He just wants you to see it all through His eyes. Run to Him this morning and thank Him for His rich heritage to mankind. And ask Him to help you walk in His plans wherever you go.
Hebrews 10:20 By his death, Jesus opened a new and life-giving way through the curtain into the Most Holy Place.
Hebrews 6:20 Jesus has already gone in there for us. He has become our eternal High Priest in the order of Melchizedek.
Hebrews 4:14 Therefore, since we have such a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to what we profess.
Deuteronomy 31:8 The Lord is the one who goes ahead of you; He will be with you. He will not fail you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.”
