Follow in my tracks
"Sam went out to help his father gather wood for the fire. It was winter and the snow was very deep. Sam and his father each took an armload of wood and started back toward their home. It was hard for Sam to walk in the deep snow with his heavy load. Sam’s father told Sam to walk in the footprints that he left in the snow. It was much easier for Sam to walk when he followed his father’s footsteps.
This little primary story is one I like a lot. I love when there is fresh snow on the ground and you can walk through it and look back and see just where you stepped. Walking to class last semester is was always kind of interesting to try and figure out the types of shoes that made which tracks in the snow. Wouldn't it be nice if we had literal tracks to follow throughout life showing us where to step and which way we should go?
