Journey


I've been really inspired lately, and it's all been because of what God's been teaching me about journey. I've realized that we as humans are on this journey, of following the two Christ commandments. Because it's a journey, it makes the yoke easy and the burden light on following both of those commandments. On the God part , I beat myself up because of my constant failings, but am encouraged that I will be on this journey for eternity, and I will have many ups and downs. On the loving people part, I am jubilant that I am not on this journey alone, but that I'm surrounded by a cloud of witnesses of struggle and success. I love that there's there old and young alike that can say amen to my feelings of loneliness and apathy, alongside with my zeal and ecstacy. The journey makes me forgive quickly, we don't have time to waste on silly disputes and hiding behind the bush of our mistakes. We have all said wrong things; but it's jubilee time. It's time to forgive all debts, wipe the slate clean, and love each other. One day we will all look back at our journals and pictures and laugh at our crushes and divisions, and yet still be on the common theme of life: the journey.

For the sake of love and harmony, let's lay aside all that divides us. the doctrine, status, past, or even romance are all like the fading grass.
