Such a sight on high way is not common, but when it happens, it calls us to ponder over the dynamics of this hazardous journey for the sheep!
Anna and I stopped the car to get a close glimpse of the way the shepherds were working in tandem to keep the flock confined to the side walk of the high way!
I asked one of he shepherds, 'how easy it is to be on the high way'! He said, 'when it begins it is easier, but it becomes difficult towards the finish, because of tiredness of the demand to be confined to the sidewalk'!
All of us fare well in the beginning of any mission, but it can try our patience to be steadfast as we might get tired or the the increasing demands consume more attention from us!
It is for this reason Jesus of Nazareth asked a searching question, 'which of you would not count the cost before starting to build a house'!
It was the thirteenth time Abraham Lincoln succeeded to be elected in any poll! He had set his mind for a long journey!
Those who begin with due preparation have the prospects of finishing well!
