Following God

Following God may have some unexpected results.

You may run into a storm.
Now when Jesus saw a crowd around him, he gave orders to go over to the other side. (Matthew 8:18 ESV)
And when he got into the boat, his disciples followed him. And behold, there arose a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was being swamped by the waves; but he was asleep. (Matthew 8:23-24 ESV)

It may take longer than expected, for example 40 years for a 11-day journey.
Normally it takes only eleven days to travel from Mount Sinai to Kadesh-barnea, going by way of Mount Seir. But forty years after the Israelites left Egypt, on the first day of the eleventh month, Moses addressed the people of Israel, telling them everything the LORD had commanded him to say. (Deuteronomy 1:2-3 NLT)

You may end up in famine.
So Abram went, as the Lord had told him, and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he left Haran. He took his wife Sarai, his nephew Lot, all the possessions they had accumulated, and the people they had acquired in Haran, and they set out for the land of Canaan. (Genesis 12:4-5 CSB)
There was a famine in the land, so Abram went down to Egypt to stay there for a while because the famine in the land was severe. (Genesis 12:10 CSB)
