Journey...

I learned a bit about walking a labyrinth today. I have the privilege this summer of mentoring some new seminary students, students whose lives have taken a turn in a very different direction.

The point was made that, unlike a maze, a labyrinth has no dead ends, no wrong turns. This spiritual journey walk always moves forward. It twists and turns, but always moves forward. Sometimes it seems like you walk back where you've been before, but you in a different place. You continue to cover new ground.

It's an interesting practice, walking with each other on this journey. Were about halfway through Lent. We might consider where we've been, with whom we have the privilege to walk, and where we might be going...perhaps slowly, but going nevertheless.
