The Luggage Carousel

     Have you ever prepared for a trip or contemplated going on a trip and worried about too much baggage?  You know that you have a certain amount of space and want to use it wisely and bring the right things.

     Even the most economical packer can't do things perfectly.  Now, consider this concept in terms of the journey.  As journeymen, we want to make sure that what we bring on our travels is simple, light weight, practical, and easily carried.

     Yet, we have to remind our hearts about the humanity factor in it all.  We can't look for a perfect, four-sided square.  Nothing is perfect.  Still, there is a beautiful rainbow whose breathtaking presence captivates our hearts.

     He is the mediator or pilot of our journey.  Throughout our travels, we can come to him with not only our ticket but all of our baggage.  He holds that ticket in his hands, and close to his heart.

     He also carries the baggage with us, especially the heaviest ones, and helps us to sort through it.  Have you ever heard of a pilot who does that?  No, it is really unheard of.  But, he is the greatest pilot in all of eternity.

     If you read his word, (King James Version), he plainly says:  'all are welcomed in my Father's house, and at his table.'  Can you find a better definition of love than that?  So, then the question is simply why?

     Why do we worry or fear?  Why do we fret over every little thing and never experience pure happiness?  It is because we are human.  We want to take everything on ourselves.  Obviously, we cannot do that.

     We are not diligent packers.  Yet, why should we when we have the perfect compass and guide who is there for us ever step of the way.  So, here is the million dollar question.  Will you give everything to your pilot and rely on him to lighten your load and pilot your journey?

     The other alternative would be to walk around with bulging eye balls and perspiration trying to do things alone.  There really is only one choice for the wise traveler.  Place your journey in his professional hands today!
