What a wonderful and in-depth description of a faith journey. It is simply a beautiful and allerting description that helps me and others see that the Christian path is a wandering and meandering journey. There are no straight lines in the journey, as we journey through life we encounter this God that is always present on the path, which only sometimes, we are able to experience and embraced. Thank you for sharing your pilgrimage.
