Another Step

I

In my area, today is the first day of a new school year. Teachers and students will be taking another step forward in their nine-month term. They’ll be facing new  challenges, perhaps questions and problems they haven’t known before. No one can see far down this road into the future, but there’s light enough for today. We know what we are going to do, today. 

That’s enough, though, isn’t it? Just knowing what to do today? Sometimes, we yearn for a floodlight when all we have is a flashlight. But, maybe that’s all we need to keep us going in the right direction. I ask God’s blessing on all the children and adults on this first day of school and on each today, as they move forward, one day at a time.
