got in from
today is a much different day with a much different group of people. they are are from the midwest and are touring manufacturing facilities for some products they sell. pretty cut and dry; pick them up at point “a” and take them to point “b”. then reverse the process. not much time or opportunity to really bond with them or find out that much about them. these types of trips are some of the hardest. just faces sitting on my bus for about an hour and then they are gone. no getting to know them, their families or anything else. the only reward I get will be an addition to my paycheck. i started doing what i do and yes it was for the pay. somewhere along the way i realized that it’s not about the money if you are where god has placed you. the rewards are much greater than the pay. if the only reason you are doing what you do for the money then you are doing it for the wrong reasons. it took me a very long time to realize that when i die i’m dead and never have i seen a moving van behind a hearse. my rewards are stored up in heaven. the work i do is for god and not for any man or corporation. i have no glory and never will. it is all for him and his glory. i am not included. i do know the one who has gone before me and he is getting closer to finishing my mansion with streets paved with gold with every day that passes. it is for eternity and no matter how long i live here on earth, eternity will be significantly longer. that is the only final thing we will ever encounter. period. there were times in my life the only thing i had to look forward to in life was dying. now the thing i look forward to the most is dying but for different reasons .i will see the creator face to face and boy, do i have a few questions!!!! and, most all of them begin with “how” and not “why”.
tomorrow will be my first day off in quite some time and i am ready to start some “kick back” time.
until next time…..
