Going Back; Staying the Course
Going back means slavery; staying the course means loyalty, perseverance, wisdom, discipline and love. Going back means never having enough; staying the course means freedom from a one track mind. Going back means shackles; staying the course means sharing the key to a freer tomorrow. Going back means I’m too slow to learn; staying the course says teach as you go. Going back means it feels right; staying the course means when its right it is right regardless of how it feels. Going back means Egypt; staying the course means manna and quail while awaiting the milk and honey. Going back means season finale; staying the course means season premiere. Going back means it wasn’t worth it; staying the course means the worth was in the end not in the means. Going back means ‘nothing’; staying the course means everything. Going back says live for the day; staying the course says remember which day. Going back says I can’t help it I’m weak; staying the course says grace is sufficient for your need. Going back says pleasure is immediate; staying the course says through patience you will gain your souls. Going back says just one more time; staying the course says you owe allegiance to One more Just then time. Going back says there’s no victory; staying the course says there’s none by going back. Staying the course says stay the course. Thanks be to God for forgiveness and the grace to stay the course.
