I spotted an elderly couple out for a stroll in a local park. As I watched them , I was aware that they seemed to be in no hurry, and that they stopped momentarily to maybe enjoy their surroundings, pointing out various interesting sights on the trail. I also wondered what was going through their minds.
Every time I see this image, in my mind, I am reminded of several things
about my own journey through life:
I can look back, or continue to seek out the path before me.
I can always take the easy way through, or I can veer off the beaten path
to find new discoveries.
I must always be aware of obstacles that might trip me up.
I can stop and rest, and take time to enjoy life,
and be happy where I am at, or walk on past,
ignoring the blessings of each new step.
I can drink in God's blessings, or I can just simply get to the end of my road.
I can go it alone, or have someone by my side to share the journey with.
Even when it seems as though I am walking alone,
I can always rely on God's hand to steady and guide me,
and look to Him for direction.
LOVE TO ALL, NORM
