when we first started, i was really excited and full of spirit. We were talking and walking... then got more and more tired during the walk... then people starts over taking you...then some of them ahead of you...and you want to catch up with them...just a simple walk..but so many feelings pops up...and you even ask yourself why can't you have bigger steps, or why aren't you fit enough or light enough to jog pass them...but you never gave up...you walk and walk and walk...finally now you are coming to the end...and you feel more relax...because you know that you are going to reach the end of the track....
Soph was right beside me when we were reaching the end...the feeling was good...while we were talking i thought of this illustration...
You know, this jogging track is really like our journey in life...at the beginning we are so happy and cheerful..and in between we face challenges, we become tired, we are tied down with expectations, sometimes our own expectations, but if we give up and stop at the middle of the road that's it...you would not see or feel how one would feel when they have finally reach the end...
more importantly it's during the journey...i remember that many times soph was there to walk at my pace you know larh i have short legs...hehe..it helped me through cos at times i was almost out of breath...yeah! Jesus is like that...
He is always with us...not some where near us..not behind us..not waiting in front of us...he is right beside us.. waving his arms at us wanting us to know his presents...that he is right beside us...to follow our pace while we are walking this journey in life...he is always there...in trial times and in good times...he is always there...some people walk through this journey ignoring his presents even though we know him...some don't even know of his presents...but some knows his presents and enjoys having this relationship with him...having a great conversation with him throughout the journey, sometimes even heart to heart talk...
it could be anything..maybe like hey God I'm really tired at work today, and I couldn't work along with them...come and teach me how to do so...or maybe like.. gees..the work is really hard and people are expecting to see something Good...i don't know if i could do it...Whatever it is...just don't ever give up... no matter how hard and tiring it is...don't give up..when we are finishing the track and we turn back then we just realize we have grown so much..we have become stronger learning from our mistakes, the experience have made us wiser and tougher people.
He loves us so much..
he really does :) here's a video..
