Left out from the motel at 7:00 am. I was 7 miles east of Tuskegee on route 80. The walk was really quite...not much traffic and the roads were not hard to navigate with such little traffic. It gave me the solitude to pray and think as I walked. I pretty much prayed for my family, the wonderful people I have met so far, for my safety on the trip and everyone else's safety. And I gave thanks for all the blessings God had given me so far on my journey.
About 15 miles out on my trip I heard a car slowing down. It came to a stop next to me. It was a woman and her family on their way to church. She said didn't I see you in Columbus the other day? I said probably I went through there a few days ago. I gave her a card and told her what a blessing the trip has been so far. We said our goodbyes and she turned around and went back the other way. About 3 minutes down the road I here another car slowing down...it was her again. She stopped to give me some money to buy some drinks and said she would say a prayer for me in Church. God bless you and thank you!
About 6 miles down the road a truck turned around and parked up the road from where I was walking. As I approached he rolled down his window and asked about my walk. I gave him one of my cards and told him all about it. He gave me some cash for the road and I thanked him for it with a blessing. Between those two blessings I was able to buy my dinner minus a penny. What a blessing.
I also had another man stop to see if I needed a ride and asked me about the walk. I told him where I started and where I was going and for what reason. Of course I gave him a card also. He gave me his blessings and said he would pray for my journey. God bless you...and thank you!
Good night love you

ReplyDeleteHello! I passed you along Atlanta Highway in Montgomery today and again at Ann Street & I85. I saw the website link so I checked it out when I returned home (and, accepting your challenge, called my son to tell him I love him). Spent the rest of the afternoon/evening driving trying to find you and shake your hand...even driving out I80 past the airport but no luck. I'll try again in the morning along west I80 in the direction of Selma. I'd like to help with provisions with a donation. If you have a specific need, you may call me at 334.782.0876. May the Lord watch out over you. I'm sure the Holy Spirit will call many of the brethren alongside your long path! Brooks Barrow
