ONE LONG JOURNEY INTO LIFE

"Life is a roller coaster so sit back and enjoy the ride"

I have not come across a more untrue saying...

The truth is that life is like an F1 car race.

A time must be set in which the race must end and, eventually, so must life. You need drivers to compete in the race as people compete in life

You get those who rush to cross the finish line symbolising the power driven people of the world. Some drift and drag representing the people who bury themselves in their own pride. Then you get the cautious few who refuse to go over 60 km/h.

Yes, these are the most noticeable things about a car race.

But if we look more attentively than this...

We see the driver who requires a pit crew showing us that we must have friends and family who support us in our loss and victory. We must have a COACH to guide us onto the right path as we have a miraculous GOD and we must wear protective gear to guard ourselves from the many afflictions and atrocities that can so quickly devour us. Every driver needs a backup car to tell us that something could go so very wrong and some are often disqualified telling us to watch our backs because not everybody will play fair to achieve something.

Life is often unfair and, at times, not very enjoyable, unlike what the saying above suggests.

But with God on our side, we have stumbled upon continuous victory and even when a big loss looks like it’s coming your way, you can go down on your knees, throw your hands up in the air and you can count on God to change the situation because WHEN YOU ARE DOWN TO NOTHING, GOD IS UP TO SOMETHING.
