It's almost impossible to imagine that when I was a child suitcases didn't have wheels. We lugged our luggage ( maybe that's why it's called luggage!!) around with us in hernia-inducing acts of heroism. We dreaded the hotel room being at the end of a long corridoor . Why on earth didn't anyone come up with the idea of wheels on cases ten seconds after the invention of the wheel??!!
At some point a clever someone had the genius idea of adding wheels to cases and overnight our travels were transformed. But yesterday I noticed that all modern cases now have four wheels. Two wheels revolutionised, four improve. With four you can walk beside your case and manoeuvre it more easily. It's a tweak. But it's a good one
Are you lugging your suitcase through life ,giving yourself back ache and limiting the places you can go? Or perhaps you have 2 wheels which are perfectly fine and get you from a to b relatively easily. With a small adjustment you might be able to improve your ease of travel.....but perhaps you have never looked up to see the new thing. There are people all around you going to the same place you are going. Some of them are finding it easier than you just now. Instead of being discouraged, why not see what they are doing which works. What habits, lifestyle choices, attitudes etc are giving them 4 wheels instead of 2? How can you tweak your walk to optimise it??
Has anyone ever compared the Christian life to a suitcase before? 😁. Probably. There is nothing new under the sun.
