driving in circles

Have you ever driven in a car to somewhere you want to be, in somewhere that is unfamiliar? Looking at any possible landmarks that would give you the slightest comfort, knowing you're heading towards the right direction. You'd drive round and round after a long while to find yourself back at where you first started off your journey. But finally, after the much hassle, you get to your destination. A heavy piece of rock falls off your heart, patting your shoulders and giving yourself a star for being adventurous and victorious.

I have come across many who have had the same experience. The joy of driving.... to some.

I guess God works the same in our lives. We want to get to our destiny, or more well known in the term "calling". In order to get there, He would drive us round and round, into the places that we've never seen or heard of before. Into the areas of our lives that is alien to us. By the time we arrive at our destiny, we have already covered much areas that we never thought we would ever have.

As convenient as today's technology, there is GPS and google map to give aid and guide. But it isn't until we drive in to explore the unknown. So is the many advice by wise men and elders around us. They could give us a glimpse of how to do this and that through their decades of accumulated wisdom, but it isn't until we put our hands on the work that we'll cover a wider aspect of life.

As I was sitting in the car at the parking lot of my apartment, resting my mind after a long day's work, suddenly I realize how God has driven me in circles for a while to bring me to where I am today. How my character is being shaped, and what capabilities is being increased through the many unfamiliar valleys and desert that i was driven to and driving in. They may seem irrelevant at times in those situations, but I cannot deny how it has raised some standards and enlarged capacity.

Never be afraid to drive in circles. No one has the right to tell you it is wrong to do so. Get to know more roads, and you'll find yourself skipping jams and taking shorter routes in the future.
