Keep Going

It seems like as long as life goes on, there will always be a next, something after to look forward to that keeps life invigorating and exciting. College has taught me exactly that, that as good as those free days in childhood were when being carefree was everything, I've learned that life reveals new things to take joy in. I also remember from PR's sermon last Sunday that if we were to live carefree lives right now, we would always ask the question, "Why?" and we would never know. PR gave the example of how the Olympians know "Why" they're competing, putting their heart and flesh out in practice and giving it their all no matter how painful trials and sacrifices might be; they know "Why" because all their work is to win the gold medal. To ask God "Why" is like forgetting why we're running this race altogether, to forget the goal, the prize. So as an encouragement for my brothers and sisters, keep going, keep moving forward despite the unknown and the uncertainties, as well as the known and the inevitable.
