… but still a million miles from you .

From YouTube, here’s Bob Dylan with a killer 1998 performance of Million Miles.

In a certain way the trying can itself be seen as the achievement, which is reassuring to spiritual weaklings like myself. The journey can be the destination. The seeking can be, in an important way, the finding. Psalm 53 (KJV) says:

God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.

That people should seek God is itself what God seeks, you might say.

Psalm 69 says:

I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.

This also shall please the LORD better than an ox or bullock that hath horns and hoofs.

The humble shall see this, and be glad: and your heart shall live that seek God.

And as that songwriter featured above sang on another occasion:

God knows we can get all the way from here to there
Even if we’ve got to walk a million miles by candlelight.
