The Journey is the Destination

Roads were made for journeys, not destinations.

— Confucious —

Reflection

Life is an endless journey.

I know; call me Captain Obvious.

During my early years of attending AA meetings, time and time again, someone would say, “Recovery is a journey, not a destination.”

Sometimes, we get so locked into our destination(s) that we fail to embrace all the lessons from the journey.

Or worse yet, we get so fearful of not reaching our destination that we fail to take the first step.

You can’t go on a journey without taking the first step…another lesson I learned in recovery.

(The first step in overcoming an addiction is admitting we have a problem.)


Questions

Is God calling you on a journey?

Do you keep fearfully delaying the first step?

Challenge

Make today the day you forget about any destinations and take the first step in opening your life to a new journey of lessons and growth.

The journey is the destination.

Jeremiah 29:11, “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.”

P.E.A.C.E.
