God Speaking

And I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year, “Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown”

And he replied,

“Go out into the darkness and put your hand into the hand of God.  That should be to you better than light and safer than a known way.”

So I went forth and found the hand of God and trod gladly into the night.
