Week 19 - Let angels guide me
One change each week. This week: Let angels guide me.
As the road trip to the Grand Canyon progressed, it became obvious that we didn't really know the best way to get there.
Yes, we knew the fastest way. That's easy. Stick to the Interstate.
We didn't know the best way.
We stopped in Crescent City, California. Went into the Post Office. The guy behind the counter was friendly man who was a motorcycle rider. (By the way, I like friendly guys and motorcycle riders; they often go together.)
He suggested a route that we had not even though of. On blind faith, we went exactly the way he suggested. We saw some of the most gorgeous scenery that this country has to offer.
Later, we were in a restaurant telling the waitress about where we planned to stop for the night. She was kind enough to set us straight by suggesting something else. We took her advice.
What's this got to do with angels?
My wife, who is wiser than I, began referring to these guides as angels.
We let these angels guide us.
Along the way, we found more angels that guided us to more great places and scenic routes.
So now I am more open to following the advice of others - other people that I really don't even know. They are the angels.
