Spencer Johnson, MD, Who Moved My Cheese, says "Imagining myself eating new cheese even before I find it, leads me to it." A good friend of mine once told me that the best way to catch fish is to go fishing. I know, I know...it sounds shallow, but there is truth in the statement.
Many times it is just easier to give up than to go through the trouble. I think the biggest tragedy is to live out our lives unfulfilled.
The secret is this and it's no secret at all. Jesus said, "I am the way..." (John 14:6). My discovery as of late is this one fact...The "Cheese" (that which makes me fulfilled and happy) is not new or different. It's the same, JESUS. Jesus never moved or disappeared. It was me who allowed myself to take my eyes off "The Way." I do not have to imagine myself eating "new cheese" even before I find it. I have found Him. And more importantly, Jesus has found me.
I now feast at the banquet table of the Lord everyday! My "job" or "career" does not define me. It is the fact there is a personal relationship, and I am getting stronger every single day.
Trust in the Lord always,
Have a great day,
CW
