Reflections on a path

You have made known to me the paths of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence.
Acts 2:28

Paths ...
speak of possibilities ...
of destinations ahead ...
of unknown terrain beyond the next bend ...

They tell me that someone -- many someones -- have walked here before.

A path fills me with hope and expectancy and eagerness to get on with the journey, for I know that this path was stomped down hard by the feet of God to make a place for me to walk. And that just around the bend he is walking ahead of me.
