One evening, while I was trail running along a woods path, accompanied by our faithful and fierce woods-poodle, I came upon an unknown fork in the trail, and took a wrong turn. It wasnt twenty-five yards before my intuition told me, This is wrong, and asked myself, Where is the dog? When I stopped to turn back, the poodle was not behind me. I ran back to the fork and whistled. Running in from the direction I should have gone, and leaping low over a stream like a smiling wolf on the hunt, she bounded down the trail at high speed. When she stopped beside me, I swear she was laughing at me. If Id have kept going the wrong way, theres no telling what kind of trouble Id have found as the sun went down. My intuition stopped me and my companion showed me the right way. In the woods, its easy to get turned around and to go in the wrong direction, even when walking on trails. When we make a wrong turn sometimes, all we have is a gut feeling telling us that something is wrong. Its helpful to have a faithful companion who has judgment that you trust to help find your way. Do you hear your intuition and keep a faith-companion? Lets Pray: Dear God, if we lose our way in the wilderness, guide our steps with whispers to our intuition, and confirm our choice through a knowledgeable faith- companion. Amen. Todays Thought Is: God will guide you; keep faith in your heart, and a friend at your side.
