One of my bags was lost in transit, and I couldnt wait for it so continued the trip without it. I had to buy shampoo and some socks. Other than that, I didnt miss the bag. By the time I headed home, the bag was back in my possession. I set it down in the hallway at home and didnt open it for a week because I couldnt remember what was in it. And if I couldnt remember, then could anything in that bag be so important?
This makes me wonder how much energy I use up, day in and day out, hauling stuff around that isnt even important. What burdens have I taken upon myself that just take up space and make me tired and anxious?
I dont think we were meant to live this waytoo many bags, and too much weight. I think God wants us to travel light and to enjoy the trip a lot more.
