We tend to be very outcome driven. Things can be judged succesful by the results produced and the goal being achieved. We can always seem to be on a journey to somewhere that no sooner have we arrived than a sense of disattisfaction can arise and we seek the next destination. In this weeks readings we see a similar story. My focus was drawn to the success achieved than the journey undertaken. Yet both are important. We become who we are called to be by setting out with each other on the journey. We start to meet ourselves as we are rather than in who we think we should be. In this slow steady pace we encounter the one who walks with us on our pilgrimage through life. We find a sense of healing and resilience which can confront our inner fears. We discover that life enables us to make the next obvious step and transforms the environment in which we live.
