Sounds like NASA, doesn't it? Dream on! I pre-date the first launch of the Apollo program, but metaphor is as close to rocket science as I'll ever get. I'm obviously not headed into orbit around another planet with this, tempting as a real life trek to Mars has been to one of my children.
I'm participating in a weekly Bible study with a small group at church. This week's most challenging assignment has been to identify "spiritual markers" in my life to date. I've obviously recalled a few, though I'm sure there are many others I've completely forgotten about because they were an awfully long time ago. While it's been interesting to go through them, I'm not particularly eager to share all of them. A few stand out as markers despite my not having personally determined a course of action (because I was far too young to do so). The goal of the exercise is to discern where God is leading me. I haven't firmly figured it out yet, but I'm grateful he's given me an ideal mate for the journey.
Now to make sure our JOINT trajectory remains in the same general direction for the next four or five decades...
