On our journey home from Colorado, an older and wiser couple drive  one hour ahead of us.  They warn us of traffic or storms.  They select  the best hotel option.  They research and find great local  restaurants. 
As we arrive behind them, we receive the  reconnaissance report.  How easy to travel this way!  They even make  dinner reservations for us so we just walk right to our table. 
It  feels like we are not alone.  As I thank God for them, I realize they  visually represent God's presence and provision all along.  
I recall the verse in Deuteronomy where the author  reports that God "went ahead of you on your journey, in fire by night  and in a cloud  by day, to search out places for you to camp and to show you the way you  should go." 
I love that God shows us the way we should go.
