Pondering this quote today


"My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going.  
I do not know the road ahead of me.... 
Nor do I really know myself, and the fact that I think I am following you does not mean that I am actually doing so.  
But I believe that the desire to please does in fact please you.  
I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire.  
And I know if I do this, you will lead me by the right road.  
Therefore, I will trust you always though I seem to be lost and in the shadow of death.  
I will not fear, for you are ever with me."    

--Thomas Merton

As I trust in the Lord to provide for the places in which He guides me.  I will not fear, or be overcome by anxiety.. He is pleased with my desires to trust and to please Him.
