Crash Test Dummy
Driving down the road of life.... so blissfully, innocently sweet... the road perfectly set in my path... there wasn't any bumps, no car wrecks on this road.... this is the road of life...of love...
My vehicle, suddenly out of control, out of my hands really...bashing into my front window...leaving a hole inside...bleeding...bruised....broken....shattered on the ground....
out of the fumbled mess i pick myself back up....scared from the happenings... pulling it together... getting back into the mangled vehicle..... not knowing which direction.....
I start down a road.... running into difference.... into happenings... thinking all the while that this was the way... that it was the road i was to be on.... in my mind it was safe... in my mind it was a road deemed as 'healthy'..... it wasn't.
The view of myself..... the observation of others..... the concept of love.... left mangled and tainted.
the road left my vehicle eventually broken down... left my heart down and out.... finally my vehicle stops.... it cannot take anymore... frusterated and lonely i get out... sit by the side of the road and cry....
i look up.... all i see is light.... feeling my body strengthen, i stand... a path is set to my right... i start towards it... pushing through the trees... pushing past the pain.... discovering things i never knew i had... branches 'round pulling, scrapping viciously.... tearing, being stripped of the filth and rags...
comming out of the journey....seeing my Fathers' face.... feeling fresh and new....full of grace...
a brand new car sits in front of me... I am given the keys... i have the choice... do i trust this road... or do i run back to the old...
how do i know if the vehicle is safe.... how will i know its the right path... i simply don't.
I must choose... do i trust... do i follow.... or head my own way... am i careless and miss what i am to have... or do i stay the direction of course... if i turn, i will end up in the mess again... if i stay the course... i might regain what was ment for me...
As i stare at the car... pondering my choice... my hand is taken, to have and to hold... warm assurance as i bravely take that step...
Journeys are hard... take a moment to ponder.... think of your journey and life, think of the love and direction you are headed... and be love.
There may be a possible part two to this but i am not sure just yet~ Anyway, be blessed and have a great day!

I think I need more than a moment to ponder my journey's and my life at the moment, (which is all good stuff!). I like how broad this can be taken into my own life, my circumstances. So many issues... so many trips with God. It's a good post hun!
