Stagecoach Trail
I am with you always. Matthew 28:20
Stagecoach Trail
Once upon a time, covered horse-drawn wagons carried passengers, mail and money on rocky, mountainous passes, until the era of railroad transport. The trails were wooded, rugged, remote, and fraught with danger. Drivers (and passengers) had to be determined and committed to traveling the trail. They had to be alert and prepared for what might happen, from bad weather to robbers.
Stagecoach Trail is a fave place for us to go for a short, not-too-difficult hike. Near the starting spot there is a circle of rocks, left over remnants of campfire circles. The trail is rocky, sometimes muddy, and large boulders have been shoved to the sides of the path.
Sometimes I imagine seeing the ruts in the dirt on the narrow trail made by the wagon wheels. I think of the great promise in the Bible that our God will be with us at all times no matter where we go.
Today we don't have to travel by stagecoach and experience those dangers, however we all journey through life and have times that are good and those that are not that great. How comforting to know we have God's promise to never leave us, and never forsake us.
