To Arrive?

We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.
-Eliot

There is a Voice calling me somewhere. I'm exploring, finding, arriving, departing.

Not that I'm a seeker; for I have found a path to walk on, though the legitimacy of that path is oft called into question.

Faith; always difficult to come to terms with - I envy and mistrust those who find it an easy task.

"Start with Scripture", go "Back to the Bible", "dig into the Word". And after that's all done, I find that I'm reading yet another new story.

That's the thing isn't it? To arrive is a contradiction, in arriving, one finds an alien familiarity.

Kind of like going home, familiar yet alien - just like Christ, so familiar, yet so strange.

Going home in Christ.
