'with skillful hands he led them'
psalm 78:72

when unsure which course to take
submit your judgment to the spirit of god
asking him to shut every door except the right one
move ahead and consider
the absence of a direct indication
from god to be the evidence of his will
that you are on his path

as you continue down the long road
you will find he has gone before you
locking doors you otherwise would
want to enter

yet out of all the locked doors
you can be sure he has left one unlocked
when you open it and walk through
you will find yourself in the river of opportunity
deeper and wider than you dared imagine
it flows to the open sea

sometimes when darkness falls
and every light's gone out
i wonder to what port m frail ship goes
although the night be long
and restless all my hours
my distant goal
i'm sure
my pilot knows
