Life is like a journey, in a many ways...and since after all the word "Journey" is in the title of my blog, i figured it'd be a good spot to start at...
Journeys are filled with unexpected twists, turns and adventures. They have a destination and they have purpose. Sometimes journeys seem to be so long and other times they fly by. There is a sense of movement in a journey, sometimes there is a need for urgency other times flowers should be picked on the side of the road. I find a hint of excitement in journeys.There is a call to action...a sense that guidance is both useful and necessary and travelling is usually implied....so it is with life...not simply about the destination but about living every moment to the full....embracing every opportunity given. Realizing that in life there will be moments of hardship and turmoil....frustration and a sense of being lost (trust me I'm used to getting lost)....Just like a journey these things will happen. There will also be moments of joy and fun.....laughter and smiles and those are a part of the journey also.
Storytime: today when i was walking to photography class it was dark and pouring...i mean pouring down rain!...it was cray cray! anyway the thunder was booming the lightning flashing across the sky and i stepped in so many puddles....(boy did i pick a lousy day to wear my non waterproof boots) anyway i was reminded of two things...1) that grace like rain flows down on me and it is ever stronger then any rain that drenched me today. (2) that even though the thunder was scary, intense and powerful...the God who made all those things is so much greater and His power lives inside of me...that's the only way I can shine bright...kind of like the lightning that i saw today.
