“Life’s a journey, not a destination.” (Aerosmith, Amazing)
“On the road again; just can’t wait to get on the road again.” (Willie Nelson, On the Road Again)
“MY LORD GOD, I have no idea where I am going. I do not see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where it will end. Nor do I really know myself, and the fact that I think I am following your will does not mean that I am actually doing so. But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you. And I hope I have that desire in all that I am doing. I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire. And I know that if I do this you will lead me by the right road, though I may know nothing about it. Therefore I will trust you always though I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of death. I will not fear, for you are ever with me, and you will never leave me to face my perils alone.” (Thomas Merton, Thoughts in Solitude)
“To follow Jesus implies that we enter into a way of life that is given character and shape and direction by the one who calls us.” (Eugene Peterson, The Jesus Way, p. 22).
“The LORD will keep your going out and your coming in from this time on and forevermore.” (Psalm 121:8)
