<\/a>\nIt was very hot by the afternoon. It was good to be able to find cool shady places to walk, including a disused railway path (even though it was not clear if this was available for public use). At some point I stepped from Devon to Somerset but it was not clear exactly where.<\/p>\n
May we who step on The Way today be sure to make every step count, for the sake of Jesus. <\/i><\/p>\n JAL 19.04.2019 It’s day 18 of the walk is also Good Friday, which seems incredible.

\nBob and I then went on by car over part of Exmoor to Exford Youth Hostel where we are staying this weekend. We made a side trip to Tarr Steps on the way. It’s a place we would often visit on the way back from Cornwall when I was a child. The longest clapper bridge in Exmoor, it is a brilliant bridge, and a place where steps count.<\/p>\n<\/a>On Good Friday, of all days, we remember steps that count:
\nSteps through Jerusalem’s streets;

\nSteps of a military guard;
\nSteps of a crowd in narrow streets;
\nSteps on stones, steps in dust;
\nSteps to a criminal’s death;
\nSteps to the cross:
\nCountless steps.<\/p>\n
