We all lose direction sometimes in our overly keen desire to be independent, but we are all in this together and the grace of God sustains us. Thank you for a fine meditation.

Is it not a providential glory when our lives are touched by such an encounter. Barbara and I are friends of Annabelle and Robert Lerch, 50 year anniversary graduates of Goshen, parents of Laura and Randy Horst, of your fine arts faculty, and grandparents of several present students. Best regards, Larry Van Genderen Jackson, WY Dear Vicki,

With my own problems I know the way I have to go, if I let God direct me- but how do I sit still and hear God or an angel of God when it comes to my aging parents and their stubborn ways? I continue to pray for peace in this issue. I wish it was that easy sometimes, having an angel of God direct us in which way to go.

I, too, have experienced the kindness of strangers when stranded some place and I know how grateful you must have felt! Thanks, Vicky, for sharing with us that interesting

It makes the point well. Yes, too often we depend upon our own selves when we need to depend upon God. Thank goodness God saves us from ourselves! What a great story! It makes the point well.

Would it be presumptuous of me to use it? I want to say it so much, I know it will help me find people in need. Great story, lovely concept. Thank you.
