A Million Ways

The thoughts here came from today's New Year's Day sermon...but sometimes even sermon stuff is good for further consideration.
The suggestion this morning was that there is no "one right way" to be a faithful follower...There is no Path, There is only a Guide, There are a Million Right Ways to Follow...was the title.
I've got my way of following and you've got your's. She has another way. He is marching to the beat of a very different drummer. And its all good. Or, at least it can be. I am not at all convinced that there is some "only one way" cookie-cutter path spread out before all of us. Some take-it-or-leave-it road down which everyone has to march in lock-step.

So, find a good guide...make provision for a year-long trek down any of a million different paths...and enjoy the days, weeks, and months of 2012. You may just find yourself at the end of this year exactly where you needed and/or wanted to be, but having arrived there by some route you never expected.

Oh, and don't let the past get in the way of having a good 2012! Find a good guide...have a good trip.
