Day 5: Still Sent

Scripture
Acts 28:30-31
"He proclaimed the kingdom of God and taught about the Lord Jesus Christ—with all boldness and without hindrance."

Devotional
Paul's journey had been filled with storms, setbacks, delays, and unexpected turns.
But the mission continued.

Paul eventually arrived in Rome, just as God had promised. And even there, he continued proclaiming the Gospel.
The storm had delayed the journey, but it had not stopped the mission.
That is the reminder we can carry with us from this entire Road Trip series: God is still working even when the road doesn't look like we expected.

Maybe your plans have changed.
Maybe you're waiting longer than you thought you would.
Maybe you are walking through a difficult season you never expected.
That doesn't mean God has stopped working.

Your circumstances may change, but God's purpose remains.
You are still called to trust Him. You are still called to follow Him. You are still called to be faithful.
The road may not look like you expected, but God is still leading.

Reflection
What has God been teaching you through the difficult roads in your life?
Where is God asking you to remain faithful?
How can you continue serving Him even while you're waiting for the destination?

Challenge
Each morning this week, pray: "God, wherever You lead me today, help me remain faithful."

Prayer
Father, thank You for reminding me that storms cannot stop Your mission. Help me trust You when my plans fall apart and the road becomes difficult. Give me courage to keep following You, knowing that You are working not only at the destination, but every step along the way. Amen.

Day 4: God Is Working in the Waiting

Scripture
Acts 28:1-2
"Once safely on shore, we found out that the island was called Malta. The islanders showed us unusual kindness."

Devotional
Paul never planned to end up on Malta.
It could have felt like a wasted stop on the journey to Rome. But God had a purpose for the delay.

While Paul was on Malta, he had opportunities to serve, show God's power, and share the Gospel.
Sometimes we think the important part of our lives begins when we finally reach the destination.

But God is working on the way there.
The waiting season matters. The unexpected stop matters. The place you never planned to be may be exactly where God wants to use you.
Don't waste the season you're in because you're waiting for the next one.
God can use you right where you are.

Reflection
Are you currently waiting for something to change?
What opportunities might God be giving you in this season?
How can you serve God where you are today?

Challenge
Instead of focusing on where you wish you were, look for one opportunity to serve or encourage someone right where you are.

Prayer
Jesus, help me see the purpose in the waiting. Don't let me miss what You are doing because I'm focused on where I want to be. Use me wherever You have placed me. Amen.

Day 3: When Plans Fall Apart

Scripture
Acts 27:44
"In this way everyone reached land safely."

Devotional
Paul's journey to Rome didn't happen the way anyone expected.
The ship was destroyed. The plans changed. The journey took longer. Paul ended up on an island he never planned to visit.

Yet God was still working.
Sometimes our plans fall apart so completely that we wonder what God could possibly be doing. We may not understand why something happened or why God allowed the journey to become so difficult.

But the shipwreck didn't cancel God's promise.
The storm didn't change the destination.
And the broken plans didn't stop God's mission.

God doesn't always work according to our timeline or our preferred route. But we can trust that He is still present in the middle of the mess.

Reflection
What plan in your life hasn't gone the way you expected?
How have you seen God work through unexpected circumstances?
Are you willing to trust God with the parts of your life you cannot control?

Challenge
Give one broken or delayed plan to God today. Ask Him to help you trust His timing instead of your own.

Prayer
Father, when my plans fall apart, remind me that Your plans have not. Help me trust You with the unexpected and believe that You are still working, even when I cannot see it. Amen.

Day 2: Don't Lose Hope in the Storm

Scripture
Acts 27:25
"So keep up your courage, men, for I have faith in God that it will happen just as he told me."

Devotional
The storm had gone on for days. The people on the ship had lost hope, but Paul had not.
Why?
Because Paul's hope wasn't based on the condition of the ship or the strength of the storm. His hope was based on the promise of God.

Circumstances can change quickly. Plans can fall apart. Things we thought were secure can suddenly feel uncertain.
But God remains faithful.

Paul didn't know exactly how everything would turn out, but he knew who had made the promise. That was enough for him to say, "I have faith in God."
We may not know what tomorrow will bring, but we can trust the God who already knows.

Reflection
What circumstances are making it difficult for you to have hope?
Are you placing your hope in your circumstances or in God?
What promise of God do you need to remember today?

Challenge
Write down one thing you're worried about and surrender it to God in prayer. Remind yourself: "I have faith in God."

Prayer
Lord, when my circumstances make me afraid, help me remember Your faithfulness. Give me the courage to trust You even when I cannot see how everything will work out. Amen.

Day 1: The Right Road Can Still Be Hard

Scripture
Acts 27:23-24
"Last night an angel of the God to whom I belong and whom I serve stood beside me and said, 'Do not be afraid, Paul. You must stand trial before Caesar; and God has graciously given you the lives of all who sail with you.'"

Devotional
Paul knew where God was leading him. God had already promised that Paul would go to Rome. The destination was right, but the road there was anything but easy.
A violent storm came. The ship was in danger. Fear began to take over. Yet none of this meant Paul had taken the wrong road.

Sometimes we assume that if we are following God, everything should go smoothly. But Scripture shows us that obedience does not always lead to an easy journey.
You can be exactly where God wants you to be and still face storms.

A difficult road does not necessarily mean you are going the wrong direction. Sometimes God allows us to walk through difficult circumstances while continuing to work through them.

Reflection
Are you currently walking through a difficult season?
Have you ever assumed that difficulty meant you were on the wrong path?
How can you trust God even when the road is hard?

Challenge
When something difficult happens today, instead of asking, "Why is this happening?" ask, "God, how are You working through this?"

Prayer
Father, help me remember that a difficult road does not mean I am on the wrong road. Give me faith to trust You even when the journey is harder than I expected. Amen.

IMPORTANT LOCATION UPDATE

This Sunday’s Church in the Park service is moving indoors to Friesland Community Church. With rain expected Saturday, the grass will likely be wet and slippery. There is also a possibility of showers and storms Sunday afternoon, which could create problems for our sound and electrical equipment.

Worship will begin at 10:00 AM inside the church.

The all-church picnic is still happening! If the weather allows, we’ll gather at the shelter after the service. If it’s raining, we’ll enjoy the picnic and games inside the Family Center.

Please bring a side dish or dessert to share. We’ll provide the meat, drinks, plates, and utensils. There will also be games for the kids and plenty of fun for everyone!

Help us spread the word by sharing this post. We look forward to worshiping and celebrating together!

Day 5: For His Glory

Scripture
Ephesians 2:10
"For you are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for you to do."

Devotional
Why does our influence matter?
Because God has created us for a purpose.
The sermon reminds us that our character and influence should be God-centered, God-directed, and focused on Him. Our good works aren't about getting attention or making ourselves look good.

They're about pointing people toward Jesus.
God has prepared good works for us to do. We don't have to wait for some huge opportunity. We can glorify Him through the ordinary moments of everyday life.

Your kindness matters.
Your words matter.
Your character matters.
Your influence matters.
You are the salt of the earth. You are the light of the world.

Reflection
Does your life point people toward Christ?
What good work might God be calling you to today?
How can you use your influence for God's glory?

Challenge
Pray each morning this week: "Lord, let my life reflect You today. Use me for Your glory."

Prayer
Father, thank You for creating me with purpose. Help me be salt and light to the people around me. May my character, words, and actions point others toward You and bring glory to Your name. Amen.
