Excerpt: The Pursuit of God, The Human Thirst for the Divine, A.W. Tozer

O God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need of further grace. I am ashamed of my lack of desire. O God, The Triune God, I want to want Thee; I long to be filled with longing; I thirst to be made more thirsty still. Show me Thy glory, I pray Thee, that so I may know Thee indeed. Begin in mercy a new work of love within me. Say to my soul, "Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away." Then give me grace to rise and follow Thee up from this misty lowland where I have wondered so long. In Jesus' name. Amen

Mapping It Out

I decided to map out our bike trip we took yesterday, just to give you an idea of the trip.  Mark says it was between 40-50 miles in length.  Those of you familiar to the area will probably get more out of this than those of you who don't live in the area.  But for those of you who don't live in the area, I left the Wendy's at the top of the picture to give you a familiar landmark.  So, further to the left and more to the top of the picture is where the church is.  You can see the church in relationship to Wendy's in the second picture.  We live about 3 miles from the Wendy's.

Our trip began at the blue dot to the right of the picture.  That is where the house is.  We turned left out of the drive way, right onto Wallburg-High Point Rd..  Then we took a right on N. Old Greensboro to W. Lexington Ave. Extn.  We crossed 109 to continue on Old Greensboro Rd.  Then we took a right on Yokley Rd., which is the road Thom-A-Lex park is on that we take the kids to for feeding the ducks and geese.  Next is a right onto Ridge Rd.  Right on Midway School Rd. Left onto Concrete Works Rd.  Left onto Old Thomasville Rd.  Right onto Gumtree Rd. Right onto Friendship- Ledford Rd. Left onto Meadowlands, left onto Motsinger Rd. and finally, right onto 109 and back to the house.
Our trip of yesterday.

Our church in relation to the Wendy's in the first photo and shown here, too.  Our trip to church is about 8 miles when we are not picking up a couple of the ladies from our church who don't drive at night.

That trip is one of the many variations we are able to take for a quick fix on the bike!  We want to begin planning a bigger trip for fun!  Can't wait!

Have a great Wednesday!
