The trail. We're all on one. Each trail is a little different, but we're all on a journey. We are each headed to a destination....whether cautious with our steps or not, our journey will take us somewhere. The journey has its perils. There are fields of flowers, but also ledges. Canyons. Thorns. The journey can even be deadly.
A guide..there is one, and a map. It leads to a place unimaginable. A place without ledges, canyons, thorns or death. A place so amazing its beyond comprehension. And...a love so beyond anything experienced. A love, calling you by name. By name... This love is waiting for you and knows you by name......
Where is this guide? Does He seem illusive? Are you wandering? Wandering..... tired, sore feet. Blisters. Disillusionment. Cynicism. Tears. Being lost....in a wilderness, without a map. Where is your help?
He is walking next to you.....waiting for you to ask Him for directions. He's a gentleman...He will not force Himself on anyone. He waits for an invitation. You have free-will. You also have a choice in life: lead.....or follow. You can try leading...the only problem: you don't have the map. And...there is an end to every journey. Only the guide knows when yours is through, and if He's not leading, you will forever be lost.
What will you decide? The guide: His hand is reaching out to you. Your name is on His lips....and the love He has for you is something you'll never comprehend. Place your hand in His. Trust Him. Let Him lead. He will never leave you, nor will He forsake you. And you will be safe.
