The Journey of Life


   Life is defined in so many ways but the best way I define it is; "The experience of being alive, the course of human events and activities"
  According to the bible is understood as God's action within a plan of goodness and for a purpose fully known to himself
  God is the creator of life and each breath we take on this earth is a gift from him.
  Journey on the other hand is another way of saying"traveling or according to the Bible walking with God"
  The journey of life is a process or step-by-step way of walking with all consciousness. It has the aim to achieve. It is having a purpose to live for something.
  In life, we feel all sorts of happiness, excitement, and moments never want to be forgotten like times with family, but in life, there are also times we feel hurt, pain, feelings of insignificance, feelings of loneliness, feelings of thoughts not known but keeps on hurting and making us cry time and time again.
  Life is not understood well even by scientists and bible scholars reason is that at one time we feel super happy and the next moment our mood changes and we feel so much pain. 
   But in all these things there is one who cares, who loves, who thinks of us, as the most priceless jewel in the whole universe. And that person is no one else but God the Father.
   He loves us to the extent that he gave Jesus his lovely and only son to die for our sins just because he wants to save us from our sinful ways. Jesus carried our burdens and dark nature upon himself, he suffered all the pains, all the troubles, and every problem we caused upon himself because he loves us.
   Sometimes we may feel so unimportant and insignificant and worthless but God sees us as priceless, he sees us as his own, and God values us even though we feel so much hurt and pain. He says he is there to comfort us.
  The journey of life also brings us to the plans of God for our lives. He says according to Jeremiah 29 11 that the plans he has for us are plans of good and not of bad to give us an expected end. That is to say, he did not create life in us to make us worthless instead he created us for a purpose and a plan and that purpose or plan must come to pass in our lives (give us an expected end).
  According to 1 Peter 1vs18to21, talks about those times see went astray, those times we stayed from the part, those times we left him and how much it cost him to get us out of a dead end (sinful life) and to bring us back to him (love in action), it cost him a lot because he had sent his only begotten son as a sacrificial lamb without blemish to die and his blood to save us from our sinful lives.
  And note that all the plans and thoughts and everything he did for our sale, he did not think over it, he just did it because of his love towards us. He never thought otherwise, he did it because of his selfless nature. It's because of all these things we find out we have a future in Christ. 
  Do you know when people don't notice you, when you are always lonely and sad about life when you feel worthless, unimportant, and insignificant when life feels unbearable and you do not think you can handle what it has to bring, sometimes also it's hard to stand up and be counted when we feel alone against the crowd.
  Instead of feeling all these insecurities, why not feel that you are being treasured by God, he does treasure you, and he sees you as an incredibly valuable person when people do not notice you, he notices you, when you are lonely and sad, he is there to comfort you, when you are not valued know that he values you a lot, when you feel insignificant he says you are priceless. 
  When life feels unbearable and you cannot accept what it has to bring, just know that he said according to Matthew 11vs 28.  Also says we should bring our yoke upon him because his ooke is lighter and he will give us a lighter one.
  God has never forsaken and will he now, forget that family, friends, and loved ones have made you feel tired of living life? Forget about all the pains and sorrows, forget the amount of tears that left your eyes, because God is there now and forever more.
   For Him to create you according to his image and likeness, truly means he cherishes and values you more than other creature
   He made us look like him so that means we are gods, having his characters, looks, and everything about him. In quotes, we are look-likes of God.
  The journey of life is not for you alone, you cannot go on alone without God and man.
People fail but God can use them to give you progress. God never fails.
  In this life, sometimes it may feel like the journey is over at some point maybe because life is not going as smoothly as it has been before, one thing you should do is continue to follow Christ and he will keep standing by your side and he will fight all your battles but the ones now and on the future.
  Don't try to do your job without adding God or including him because it may lead to your downfall.
  Life is not fair, everyone knows that but with God, it is fair, not caring about what others say or think, but knowing what God says and thinks is what motivates and matters and life trouble should not stop you from achieving the plans God plans for you.
  Just a word to note "We were mortal men and the best thing for us is to surrender to the one who has the wisdom so that we do not keep moving in cycles. Engage the journey of life with God by your side at all times and you will surely succeed and it will count.
