It is the story of the people of God. They wandered. Abraham wandered from his homeland (a wandering Aramean). The Israelites wandered in the desert after liberation from Egypt. The people of God wandered away from faithfulness over and over, called back to salvation by a faithful and loving God. I wonder how you handle the wandering in your own soul? Has it caused you to make a few wrong turns? There is a Taizé song called “De Noche,” that says: “De noche iremos, de noche; que para encontrar la fuente, sólo la sed nos alumbra, sólo la sed nos alumbra.” In English: By night, we hasten, in darkness; to search for living water, only our thirst leads us onward, only our thirst leads us onward.” How will your thirst ever be satisfied? “…we remain conscious of a desire which no natural happiness will satisfy” (CS Lewis, Weight of Glory).
