"A highway shall be there, and a road, and it shall be called the Highway of Holiness. The unclean
shall not pass over it, but it shall be for others. Whoever walks the road, although a fool, shall not
go astray." (Isa. 35:8)
When I was a small boy growing up in Pennsylvania, we would often visit my grandparents who
lived nine miles away. One night a thick fog settled over the hilly countryside before we started
home. I remember being terrified, and asking if we shouldn't be going even slower than we were.
Mother said gently, "Don't worry. Your father knows the way." You see, Dad had walked that
road when there was no gasoline during the war. He had ridden that blacktop on his bicycle to
court Mother. And for years he had made those weekly trips back to visit his own parents. How
often when I can't see the road of life, and have felt that familiar panic rising in my heart, I have
heard the echo of my mother's voice: "Don't worry. Your Father knows the way." (From

God has provided the Way to eternal life through Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ Himself is the way. Let us follow Him wherever He leads.
