The Journey! (real life)

Picture is worth a 1000 words!


My son Teddy was drawing on a blank white paper and his picture became very clear to me. An "ah ha" moment from this brilliant 2 year old. A Masterpiece! He was not drawing scribble but rather the reality of life's journey. So often we expect life to take us on a straight line from point A to point B with little to no issues along the way. We want it all. We want it now. We want no problems.


Guess what? That is not real life!Life will have turns and bends along the way. Life will also throw you obstacles along the journey. (see blue triangles as obstacles) It's all planned. It's all on purpose. That's when the word "FAITH" comes into play.

Besides, how boring would life be with just a straight line with no scenic hills along the way? What a boring drive this would be. Life is to be a fun challenge. Life is to be this beautiful drive full of turns, rolling hills, some mountains, and a lots of scenic sites that take our breath away. Don't get discouraged by the turns and bumps; they are supposed to be there. Rather embrace these turns and hills and view them as all part of this amazing plan to take you on the most joyous trip called Your Life!

By the way: Thanks Teddy for making this so clear!
