the communion meditation today. The poem "Footprints" was the highlight of the meditation. The Walk Virginia Salter walking along I heard Your voice it was soft and gentle yet full of power power to caress the depths of my very being soothing, more soothing than any sound in my life the trip ahead I chose to travel with You You with me company of safety friendship love the journey fine filled with peace and joy my strength renewed fully revived to a being more confident than ever before thank You for this wondrous vacation I’m returning home now, Lord, thank you for showing such a glorious path thank you I’ll see you around thanks again, Lord rejuvenated I walked alone viewing the sunsets whose glow was not as bright seeking the sunrise whose promise was now dimmed why is my trek more arduous why is my strength waning why is His power fading? not a vacation? but a lifetime, that’s what He’s asked? am I up to the task? help me! help me find His footprints anew help me, help me follow You © July 15, 2001 |

Wow, you are free flowing in spirit today! True we don't look to him as we should every step. We get distracted. Like little children that get lost from their parents in crowded places. I imagine how good he feels when we find his hand again. Sincerely, Rwood With all things considered, why not God? |

Thank you all. I must say this is not my current situation although I know I'm not exempt from this type of thing happening. It is purely inspired by the communion meditation on Sun. 7/15/01. |

Yes, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil...... Funny, but I was inspired by your poem from a different angle than perhaps your poem was intended. During this time of vacations for me, I was thinking more in terms of staying close to God during my vacation time rather than taking a vacation to be close to God..... but still the intent of your poem comes through, to stay close to God always. A very nice walk indeed. Bob <>< |
