TRAFFIC

On the highway of life we can easily get caught up in all kinds of "traffic jams". What jams us up are several things. Let me name a few. First, the fear of pleasing everyone ALL THE TIME. You know what I mean? I am a pastor. I love people. It is expected of me to be a people pleaser. Well, if you know me IM NOT!!!!! I refuse to get jammed up as I have been before. The question is, how do you get unjammed? The best way out of a traffic jam is to turn around and go another way. Leave the  traffic and find another way. My life is too short to please everyone. I will try to please my wife, kids, parents and God. Everyone else is only as I feel it can truly benifit their life. If I continue to stay in the jam, i will not be productive, rather I will be standing still, going no where.... stagnet. I will continue to love people, but I will never be bound by them. Traffic jams.... they happen. Life, it happens. Detours? For sure. Stop standing still and go the other way. "Wide is the gate, narrow is the WAY"  Just a thought...................
