There are two tracks...God’s track and ours. The question is how we might join them into one track without bumps and jolts as we travel through our lives. The answer may be easily understood. God has a plan for our lives...a destination. We also have plans and goals which we desire to realize. As we worship God each Sabbath and discover His will for our lives, © He will give us direction, that finally the two tracks might converge smoothly into one. Get on track...God’s track. Have a safe journey. = = ” = - - > - | od - b= fen fan ha a ETRE CTT TE TET Te IY TIFF FT A NR ay NEFA IIARINAAIDINII IAT IIIII I ATED BS Monday Tuesday Wednesday =.
