RUNNING AWAY
How many time have you ran away from something that you thought was bad and that you thought that you did something wrong? How many time have we all did this to the point of not really understand what we did at that time and age? Well I have to tell you that we have all ran away from one thing to another in some point in our lives. Now if we could really be honest with ourselves and not self take you down this road that we may feel that is not us and that is not what and who we are. We have to start to look at who we are and who we have become and what we have become and to what place that we are going. We are not by far a perfect people and not by any means are we gonna get there. We are a people that we too learn on a daily basis until we get home. I mean home by going to be with the father who created us out of his image and likeness. So what have you ran from. Let’s look at some of the things that we can run from. We can run from a dog, a bird that seems to get us confused with nature, we can run from our loved ones and our parents. We can even run from the law. Who has not ever ran from the law and. Let me see what else can we possibly run from. We can run from an enemy that tries to kill us, we can run from robber or a thief. So what have you ran from. Well let me tell you about this young man that seems to run all the time and still runs today. This young man seems to even run when he needs not to. Now I have to say that this young man has had a real problem out of life and he still needs to know what it is that he needs to know about life in general. Now he has been all over the world in a sense and even to one of the islands that he did not want to go but that not choice at the time. What makes us run in the first place. Is it something that is embedded into our minds that we have to get away from something that will harm us? Or is it just that we want a change? Well this young man has no clue to why he runs and he finds no way to curb this things that makes him run. He just goes by impulses and just keeps on moving until he feels that he has found the place of rest. I do not see the urge for this young man to keep running. Now every place that he has been he has had good fortune and good jobs in his journey. But this should not be the case of just wanting to go from place to place and find hope and dreams of what ever it is that he is looking for. I can’t see the real reason that he leaves. Now I do know for a fact that at a young age he ran away from home cause of what hid parents had put him through or he put his self through at the time. He was just one of those kids that did not want to listen to what anyone had to say. He was a stubborn kind of fellow. He was one of those that it was his way or the highway to say the least. So now at the tender age of 12 he leaves home and starts on his journey. This takes at least 20 or more years. In his travels he has endured a lot and lost a lot at the same time. You would think that after a while he would have learned how to settle down and stop. But this made him want to run more and more and run longer and longer. I mean longer by going out of his box. He left his home state at the age of 31 years of age and found new cities and new places. This intrigue him even more I guess. But at his expense it cost him a bundle of pain and hurt. This things that is inside of him, I know not what it is that drives him to leave and just go and explore this land that god has made for us all. What do you think that you can learn as you travel. Well I tell you what, this young man learnt a lot in is travel. This young man learnt things that his own parents did not teach him or even cared to teach him. Now he spent time in jail, prison, homes and just places that animals would live. He lived in the streets and ate out of trash cans and just did what he had to do to survive at the time. He was not a proud man when it came to going places where he could sleep and eat. He did not care where it was or who it was with. So have you ever ran away thinking that you can get away from it all and find hope and peace and a place of rest? Well there is a story that I read about a man that did the similar thing to this young man. But this man ended up in the belly of a whale that god created just for this man. Now this man tried to run away from god and hide. This young man was sure that he could get away from the creator of all mankind and all living things here on earth and in heaven. So what happened to this man? Well, he was on a boat that was going somewhere and there arose a storm, a tumultuous storm that drove the wind and the waves to go rampart. So what happen then was an amazing thing that could only happen by the hands of god. There was a whale that rose out of the ocean and swallowed the man and lived in his belly for a minute. And after awhile the whale spat him out. So after that he was spat out of the mouth of the whale he did live and he bowed down to god. Now have this happened to this young man? Well yes and no? He did get swallowed up by the mouth of a whale, but in the form of earth and its inhabitants. This young man learned that you could not run away form god and you could not get away with what ever he was trying to get away from. We have all ran from god and not run to him. Maybe some of us have ran to god and he was not there and in turn we ran away from. This young man ran and ran and ran until he ran into a place where he wanted to take his life and end it all there. Wow. Now he has really thought that he could run and end it all. But you know if you have ever been in that place and that start, you have to know that god is in control and he has the last say so. So he died and he came back to life only to tell his story. This young man now has a lot to tell of his saving grace and his plea to not try to run again and his appeal to god to just stay where he is in life and just deal with it. So now this young man writes to you now to let you know that you just have to stand and know that god is in control and know god has the final say. I have learnt a lot in my nomadic journey through life and learnt a lot about not tying run anymore. I have learnt that I just have to know that this is where I am supposed to be. Not by man but by god and god only. This is the place where god wants me and I have to know this and tell my story to those that feel that they are where they need to be. Man can not tell you where you are in Christ, only god can give this. So stop listening to man and learn to listen to the voice of god and his angels.
