Everyman’s Hut

“There let my way appear Steps unto heaven; All that Thou sendest me In mercy given; Angels to beckon me Nearer my God to Thee, Nearer my God to Thee, Nearer to Thee.” These words seem singularly appropriate to the men who have already gone from our shores and those who are waiting in camp for their next move. In the military sense it is just step by step. The way is ordered by those higher up according to plan and all that is required of the men is just to obey orders and move on step by step, not knowing, though perhaps guessing, where they are heading for ultimately, but conscious that one day the end of the journey will be reached and then they will know more of why each step was ordered for them. And if only we, each one, could understand that in the spiritual sense, our every step is ordered by One Who is higher than we, and that our lives are ordered accordingly to plan and all that is required of us is to obey His will and follow His leading till we reach the end of life’s journey and “know even as also we are known.” To-day, in the midst of all the “distress among nations with perplexity” it may be the fervent prayer of many: “There let my way appear, steps unto Heaven.” Oh, for a gleam of Divine light upon my pathway, lighting my steps on the upward path with “Angels to beckon me nearer my God to Thee.” If that is the desire which is deep down in your heart, then listen to the words of the only One Who has come from
