Whether your journey is for business or pleasure, prayer can help you travel with more peace and security. Amid reports of plane crashes and train accidents, everyone has a role to play in supporting safe travel—through being alert to conditions around them and most of all through turning to God. As you pack luggage and make travel arrangements—or as you get ready to see someone off on a trip—you can take the time to place each journey in the “secret place of the most High” (Ps. 91:1). For spiritual insights into safety, camping, being away from home for the first time, or any other travel issue, bring your questions to this live chat.
