Making the Most of the Road You Are Traveling
Life is
full of roads; paved roads, highways, and even dirt roads. These roads all have
intersections, cross-roads, side roads, and back roads. Sometimes the road we
are traveling on is as straight as an arrow.
Other
times, there are detours and barriers on the road we’re traveling. Often the
detours we encounter are curvy, bumpy, and narrow. Sometimes we barely have
room to navigate our way through or around the barriers.
Somewhere
along everyone’s life’s journey the smooth straight road gets bumpy. Often
times, it gets s a little bit rocky and difficult to maneuver. There are other
times when the road gets overwhelmingly bumpy, almost impossible to see our way
through.
When the
roads of our lives get bumpy or overly crowded, we can't be so focused on one goal that all other
opportunities in life pass us by.
Life
isn't always about taking the road that is less challenging. Many times we
cannot even FIND the easy road. Life is about making the most of and enjoying
the road you ultimately find yourself traveling on.
What is
the road you are traveling right now like? Is it straight, and smooth? Is your
road narrow, bumpy, and curvy? Is your road easy or is it challenging? Tell us
in the comments. We’d love to hear from you.
My road is as you said, smooth then challenging!

fun concept, reminds me of a sr english writing assignment in high school...All roads are not freeways! Too true!
ReplyDeleteYou're right Lin. All roads are not freeways, thank goodness for that. Freeways are too much for me!

Have a great week ahead!
I see my life as a series of paths... some of soft sand or rocks or sometimes hard to see all grown over with grass.
ReplyDeleteSometimes I am walking along and poof I dont see my path any more... those are the times I just stand and wait, observe, maybe lay down... I may lay there for Years! But sure enough after enough rest I stand up again and my eyes can pick out a pathway once again. I will shuffle at first, alittle weak and scared, but if I move ahead the way becomes clearer.
hm..i think i will copy this to my blog LoL

DeleteYour visits and interactions mean a lot, wishing you all the best.
Sometimes it's hard to have hope when the road we're traveling has all those bumps ... but there's a reason God allows those along our life journey. Making the most and best of a situation often leads us back to where we needed to be in the first place. Just keep traveling forward ... :)
