A Walk
On the way.
A close walk with you, Lord. A bracing walk in the woods, over meadow, through tended yards, back home.
When setting out, do I fear the path? Do I cower in thinking of the garden?
Wherefore then do I worry over the coming days upon days?
The path you have laid out for me winds and winds, and upon me rain may fall for moments.
❖
I start from home; I end at home. Is not the way more noteworthy than the destination?
Let me be on the way.
– from the mountain
Consider:
Can I appreciate my journey today?
