It was very foggy in Northwest Indiana last Sunday morning. The fog was so dense in places that one could only see a few hundred feet ahead while driving.

I was glad the roadway had markings to show the lanes; otherwise, it would have been easy to cross into approaching traffic by accident.

This experience reminded me of the road we are all traveling to meet Jesus, face to face, at the end of our lives.

How fortunate we are to have guideposts on this journey, keeping us from crossing into danger. We have Jesus’ teachings, the guidance of the Holy Spirit, excellent priests and bishops, and Church teachings to help prevent us from running into trouble.

The way ahead can be uncertain at times. Let’s pay attention to the resources God has given us, so we can travel safely to our final reward.
