The Highway

More than three times a week I always pass this highway to Jakarta from my lovely city of BSD. It was nothing special, just a highway. Yet on that faithful day I received a beautiful revelation from Him again. I was sitting on the back and starring on the highway, literary the grey aged road which is amazingly still remain intact without blemish, unlike other Jakarta’s roads. Here is the thing.



Many people often say that there are many ways to Rome. I indeed believe that there are many ways to reach a destination, yet many think that these roads must be different roads and directions. Have you ever though that these roads might have the same direction and distance? They are just put side by side like a highway. The difference s just that there is the fast lane in the rightmost side, normal lane in the middle, and the slowest lane in the leftmost side.

These lanes are directed toward one destination. Yet cars must be driven with different speed. In our life often we are directed into the same destination with your friend, yet your friend or mate seems to move faster than you. Do not worry. You are still reaching that destination, just with a different speed.

But does it stop here? No, a highway allows you to move to another lane to speed up or to slow down. In life, God has planned great destination for our life. It is up to our choice whether we want to speed up or slow down. It depends on your attitude and capability. Some people prefer to move in a slower pace, some love the higher pace, and some enjoy the normal pace. He let it to our own decision. When you feel that the fast lane is too dangerous and full of concentrations, you can move to the normal or slow lane. Don’t worry, you are still on the track, you are still in the highway!! :D

After talking all these things, there is one more important thing to be noted. In any lane, sometimes there is a car moving slower than your car pace in your chosen lane, and the car is just in front of your car! In this momentous moment, you need braveryto move your car to the other lane in order to take over that car and move back to your lane. Get what I mean? In life, after you chose your own lane, there is a possibility that there is something that hinders your speed and growth. If you are not brave to speed up and temporarily move to the faster lane, you will be slowed down. So, be brave!! You only need to speed up a bit and move to the other line to take over that hindrance, and move back to your own lane, and back to your own preferred speed. It is great right? :DD!!

Psalm 32: 8 (NKJV) - “ I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go. I will guide you with My eye.”

So, everything is your own choice! He has set your destination. Enjoy your drive ;)! !

God bless

Auf Wiedersehen
