Adventure Fatigue! The feeling we get when the exciting journey with and in God begins to seem overwhelming.

The people of Israel cried to God while in Egypt to save them, He heard and sent Moses. By His mighty outstretched arm, He brought them out of Egypt on the way to the Promised Land.

In Exodus 15, they went 3 days without water in the wilderness. At Marah they finally found water, but it was not drinkable. The Lord showed Moses a tree, he cast it in, and the water became sweet. What an adventure!

However, in Exodus 16, right after Elim, they hit a spot and Adventure Fatigue surfaced. They cried out to Moses. ‘We would have preferred remaining in Egypt around our meat pots, they said. God’s response, I will send you Manna and I will test you in the process.

Dear friend, Adventure Fatigue can happen to the best of us. But when it does, here are a few things to consider.

1. Tell God how you feel.
2. Be reminded that because the journey is God’s, the plan will be His too.
3. If your last season were all that, you would not have needed this one.
4. God is faithful and can stabilize you even in the eye of a storm.
5. He will provide and sustain.
6. No matter what, God is Good.

You see, adventure must be learnt, so even when you feel like the one you are in with God now does not work, hold on to Him. He is always up to and on to something.

From a fellow traveller that is adventure fatigued sometimes, the assurance is no matter how long it takes, we will arrive. Our God is too faithful and capable to fail.
