SEEKING: HONEST QUESTIONS FOR DEEP FAITH
Where are you headed?
We are trains on a track, moving through life at
warp speed.
Please keep all arms and legs inside the moving vehicle
at all times.
The years pass like a flipbook, faster than we can
absorb, but the train does not stop.
We press our faces to the windows to try and get a
good view and we ask each other, Where are you
headed?
And there on the train we decide – we want to
head toward the promised day.
We want to head toward crowded tables and long,
healthy lives.
We want to move in the direction of joyful children,
and hopeful communities.
We want to move closer to God with every mile of
track, and that does not happen by accident.
So, it’s time to ask, Where are you headed, and
who’s driving that train?
Poem for reflection by Rev Sarah Speed
“Trust a crowd to look at the
wrong end of a miracle every
time.” (Kurt Vonnegut)
