Lost, Home

Letter 4492

I got lost yesterday, wandering along trails with which I was unfamiliar. I had gotten turned around, and was going in circles. I saw the same pair of trees with distinctive limbs three, four, five times. At one point, the panic was excruciating. Would I ever make it?

I found my way home.

Today I set out on the same path, carrying paint. I am going to mark the trail for others. Let none experience what I did.

Lord, let me turn my experience to help others.


Consider:

Can I use what I learn for others?
