THE JOURNEY
We make a journey, but from where to where?
She asked. “To God,” I said, and left it there.
But I have asked, too, why we had to start
Out of the shelter of His loving heart
And take so roundabout a road to come
Back to the loving heart we started from.
The journey has to be our way to grow
Toward some fulfillment more than we may know.
