Temporary Tracks


Everything here is very temporary. And isn’t that good news based on the promises that we have? I have grown content in my present state, but not totally. I still yearn for more and better. But not in the stuff that’s temporary. Oh, I guess I can't say I don’t want to constantly be growing in my businesses and see them be as much of a success as they can be, but I do constantly watch others and the things they have that I do not. Ie: ease of learning, building things naturally with little or no effort, lives that have more positive experiences than negative just by grace…. Not that I sit around resenting those things in others, but yes, I notice. Especially when someone has one of the above blessings in life and chooses to throw it away. You know, if you let it, stuff like that can really slow you down!

I have decided to not let anything that isn't a force from God hold me back from my real desires here on this earth. Afterall, if you think about it, your desires come from who you really are. And being that the Lord designed us in his own image, how can that be a wrong move as long as we achieve by good measure and honest ways? I am sold on that being the only way to go.

So if you are happy with where you are, then delight in it and realize all that you can do to share with others the goodness life has for them here in the temporary as well as the eternal. This is our true witness for the message of Jesus Christ.
But if you are drowning in the temporary track to nowhere with no realness of growth or giving, seek to change your environment to become more of who the Lord made you to be. And what is that? That is what makes you content and comfortable deep down in the pits of your gut. It will pay off in unmeasurable ways. Ways that are by no means temporary!

It's amazing at how much a little can change a lot, and then on the other hand at how much a little can change a lot. ...Think about it.
