ROADS ARE FUNNY THINGS..
A road is rarely straight. It's usually filled with twists and turns detours and such. No matter how the road itself changes the destination doesn't.
We all have different roads to Heaven but as long as we have accepted Jesus we will get there.

A HARD STOP
I wasn't afraid of heights till I experienced the fear in falling and the pain in landing.
I stopped wanting to swim with the dolphins because there are bigger things under them.
I almost stopped enjoying life because it's not fair.
Then I remembered that if you laugh,
Brokenness can not claim you.
If you smile you will touch your humanity while giving someone else hope.
If you think outside of yourself and give a voice to the voiceless (fill in your favorite noun) then your act will contribute to your purpose!
What's the moral?
Get up you are better than your circumstances!
Live on purpose helping all that you can while you can!
Loving like you have never been hurt allows you to love the wonder of it all again! Following the Lord who created you and set aside your days doesn't mean you won't experience dryness again..it just means your JOY won't be tied to it.

WISDOM NUGGET - More than a Pearl..
Life, sometimes, will make you sit tall.
Ride proud.
Sometimes it will knock you off your confidence.
Leaving you real low;
Disoriented,
Discouraged,
Discontented,
Depressed,
in Despair.
What's the take away? 1.) Never ride so tall that you that you can't recover when you fall. Everyone falls and 2.) Be gracious when your up and when you are down graciousness will find you.

*PSALM 138:6 (NKJV)
Though the Lord is on high, Yet He regards the lowly; But the proud He knows from afar.
