In one sense we are always traveling, and traveling
as if we did not know where we are going.
In another sense we have already arrived.
We cannot arrive at the perfect possession of God
in this life, and that is why we are traveling
and we travel in darkness
But we already possess God by grace, and therefore,
in that sense, we have arrived and are
dwelling in the light.
But oh! How far have I to go to find You
in Whom I have already arrived!
