The wiser journey

Marlyeen Stettner

How are we getting to where
we are going?

For example: Fill the tank.
In straightforward determination
set out from Ohio and head east
to California!
Put in lots of mileage a day.

The question isn't:
"I have driven long, why am I
not there yet?" The question is:
"Did I understand or just
look at the map?"

Everybody gets there eventually.
(The world is round!)
There is, however, a shorter route.

In a new direction, while
trusting the landmarks of
listening, humility, and obedience,
we witness the sure guidance
of our Father.
