Don’t miss the prize for the potholes along the way.
Philippians 3:14, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
Several years ago, I had the privilege to go to Kenya. We flew in to Nairobi and spent the night. The next morning, we rented a van and headed to the village in which the missionary that we were helping lived. Let me tell yah, there was more potholes then there was road but we made it. We couldn’t miss them all but we did a few.
Along this road of life, there will be some potholes. Some deep, some dry, some lonely, some heart breaking, some disappointing, but there are a couple of things for sure; if we keep or eyes on the real prize- Jesus, we will make it to the destination without hitting all of them and the ones we do hit, Jesus will be there to help us out of them! Press on, it won’t be long!
