stretching my legs

I just finished flying to Hawaii and back and no my arms are not tired. I am however reminded of why I do not like long flights, my legs. With long legs and the closeness of airline seats I took opportunity to stretch my legs often. The destination, Hawaii, of course made all the time spent in flight well worth the discomfort.

In life there are often opportunities that await us just outside our comfort zone. Sometimes we may have memories of our last travel and it causes us to question whether it is worth the journey. Just as Hawaii was worth the sacrifice of the flight, there awaits a future with God whose plans sometimes seem beyond the boundaries of our limitations. We stretch a little along the way, stay on board, make the connections and eventually we reach a destination well worth the sacrifice of our journey.
