“If you wish to travel far, fast and light.
Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness,
selfishness, and fears” (guilt too) – G. Clark.
Unloading the baggages of the past is a process. Sometimes there is just so much more attached to the baggage than we could have ever imagined. “Do not go through life with baggages”. We all know that! Somehow familiarity sometimes beats the option of having to deal with our flaws/sins/ordeal. I honestly couldn’t and cannot do life without Christ as my role model and guide. He is such a vital part of who I am and how I deal with life. We tend to get so easily entangled in our own web of lies, rejection, lust, etc. that we are not able to move beyond due to our own guilt. Our guilt, unforgiveness, fears, selfishness, envies and jealousies keep us from enjoying life cause we are too entangled (consumed) in the web that we unconsciously/consciously have spun for ourselves.
The Bible is a book that tells the story of our Saviour fighting a kingdom for a bride (which is us). Probably why we are so naturally drawn to fairytales. We are part of this story and it ain’t a fairytale. Christ has made a way to save us. However, we are the heroines that seek answers in the dark when the Light wants to show us the way. Jesus will come for His bride. Are we ready or are we too busy being tangled in our own bad decisions? I assure you, we will fall. Its in our sin nature but we are overcomers. Lets break out of the web that we are so easily entangled in and step out in faith that Christ, who endured the cross, will get us through this. For He overcame death therefore that same power that lives in us causes us to be overcomers.
