HAILING CABS

When you hail a cab, there are many ways of letting the driver know your destination. You can tell him the destination prior to entering the cab. You can tell him subsequent to entering the cab. You can merely give him your general direction without identifying the specific address of your destination until you have almost arrived. Thus, some cab drivers know the destination at the beginning of the journey. Others learn the specific destination along the route, or at the end of the journey. Relationships with God are similar to hailing cabs. Some religions have a detailed map and destination point at the beginning of the journey, others learn the destination along the route, and still others learn it at the end of the journey. Most significantly, all of them can take illegal turns, wrong turns, and/or get lost along the journey, prior to arriving at the destination.
