When the Deconstructionist and the MAGA Nationalist Meet the Wayfinder

The Way is missed by everyone who has not the childlike heart; 

• I have to go humbly lest I miss the way of life just because it is so simple.  
• God has hidden these things from the wise and prudent and 
• revealed them unto babes.  

When we have been found by the Lord Jesus Christ

• and have given ourselves to Him in unconditional surrender, 
• the fact that we have found the Way is not so much a conscious possession 
• as an unconscious inheritance.  

Explicit certainty is apt to make us proud, 

• and that spirit can never be in a saint.  

The life of the saint who has discovered The Way 

• is the life of a little child; 
• we discern the will of God implicitly.

One of the significant things about those who are in The Way 

• is that they have a strong family likeness to Jesus,
• His peace marks them in an altogether conspicuous manner.  

The light of the morning is in their faces, 

• and the joy of the endless life is in their hearts. 

Wherever they go, 

• men are gladdened or healed, 
• or made conscious of a need.

The way to the fulfillment 

• of all life's highest ideals 
• and its deepest longings is the Lord Jesus Christ Himself.  

How patiently He waits until, 

• having battered ourselves against the impassable bars of our universe, 
• we turn at last, 
• humbled and bruised, to His arms, 
• and find that all our fightings and fears, 
• all our willfulness and waywardness, 
• were unnecessary had we but been simple enough to come to Him at first.  

"There is a way which seems right to a man, 

• but the end thereof are the ways of death."  

God grant that 

• for our own sakes, 
• for the sake of those near and dear to us, 
• for the sake of the wide world, 
• and for the sake of the Lord Jesus Christ, 
• we may come to this New and Living Way, 

Where "the wayfaring men...

• shall not err therein...
• but the Redeemed shall walk there...
• with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads."
