Life is a Journey, that’s a very common generic statement we all know/hear, and the statement stands very true. The word “Journey” itself states that we are in motion or movement. Another common phrase common in Christian community is we are travelers in this world. Do you remember the famous song by Jim Reeves ” This world is not my home, I am just passing (traveling) through”. Jesus Himself illustrates this life Journey with the broad and narrow roads which leads to destruction and life respectively, Matthew 7:13-14.
If life is a Journey and we ought to keep moving, Than what are the most important Propellers that push you and help as a companion in this earthly Christian journey….? Below are the 3 important ones.
- The Word Of God
- Prayer
- Faith
Let me explain with a illustration. Consider life’s Journey to a train. The two railway tracks are the most Important aspect for the train to move forward in the right direction. Trains are the only vehicle’s which do not have the staring wheel, the driver does not move the train to the left or right. It’s the two tracks on which the train moves decides the direction and the destination. Without these tracks the train moves nowhere.
The two tracks are, The word of God and Prayer. Without these two being embedded in ones life, the so called christian Journey comes to stand still. Just as the train cannot move on one track, we cannot move forward by just Praying and having no connection or knowledge of the Word of God. Prayer and the knowledge of the word of God have to run parallel till the end destination for the journey to get completed.
So what about Faith, where does Faith stand in this Journey…? The Train is able to move and is able to take the right direction on the tracks only and only because of the specially designed wheels. You may have the engine of life, you may have the tracks, but without the special designed wheels there would be no easy moment nor will the train be heading in the right direction on the tracks. Its the Wheels of Faith that holds on to the tracks and maneuver a christian life journey accordingly.
So how is your Journey of Christian life going..? Is it on the right track and direction or is it stagnant.? Do you meditate on the word of God and Pray regularly…? Is the wheel of faith stationed on the two tracks..? Do you exercise your faith and claim your Blessings, Promises and move forward in Faith…? Just think about it and act about it before it’s too late. Leaving you with this short generic video clip below, which talks about the Journey.
