The Creekstones Image
Discovering your vocation is like crossing a wide creek. The distance from one side of the bank to the other is far too great for a single leap. Just looking at it often causes one to say, “Nope, not possible.” Fortunately, there are some stones just beneath water’s surface. They are so placed that with a good leap from one to another you can eventually make it all the way across the creek.
The Need for a Guide
If you’re staring at the water, the stones can be difficult to locate. It takes someone who knows the area well to point them out. Translation: when discerning your vocation, you need a good guide to offer direction, encouragement, and accountability along the way. That’s what we’re here for!
