Journey On

Life is a journey all its own.  We may have many people that travel alongside us but when it comes right down to it, each of us make the journey according to our own decisions.  We often make decisions that makes our travel companions leave us and go another path or we move to another part of the path and find new companions to travel with.  Being a MAGOH is not an easy path.  It is often lonely because we have to make decisions that others do not understand or disagree with because they don't see the path from your perspective.  We often make the wrong decision and journey down the wrong path and we have to retrace our steps and go back down the right path.  Whatever the case may be, we never truly travel alone if we are 'a man after God's own heart'.  We may feel all alone but that it most likely when God is testing us to see if we really are a MAGOH.  Whenever you take a wrong route or fall down, don't give up. Get up or turn around and get back to where you knew it was right and start out again and do it quickly.  Sometimes we wander far away but that is when we need to run back to Jesus, repent and start down the path again towards Jesus. 
       Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:1-2
     Don't forget to keep your eyes fixed on Jesus.  He knows what we are going through and loves us even when we fail.  Press on and may you be a MAGOH.
