As I watched these two walk past me along the road to their home in the evening, I reflected on the experiences of these two along the same road each day! The child has few years of experience and the older person has longer years of experience along this road!
Both of them follow the road marks to their home! They depend on them for their direction.
However it is the older person who become the guideposts for the child!
There is so much talk on mentoring! To be a mentor would mean many things...but one function is guide post.
The protein Jeremiah. 31:21 suggests,' Set up for yourself road marks, Place for yourself guidepost, Direct your mind to the highway..'
The highway in life is open to all of us....there is an individual responsibility to find the road marks for ourselves and and the collective responsibility is to provide guideposts!
