Journeying toward the shores of Heaven....






" That same evening, when the sun appeared to be sinking into the vast stretch of the waters beyond a golden path of light, I went with you to sit upon a lonely rock. I gazed for ages on this path of light, and you said it was the image of the path to Heaven when grace lights up the way.
Then I thought of my heart as a tiny ship with white and graceful sails gliding down the middle of a path of gold, and I resolved that I would never sail it out of sight of Jesus, so that it might voyage
swiftly and in peace toward the shores of Heaven."

Something beautifully apt for a blog named "Sailing by Starlight" from Saint Therese's "Story of a Soul"
