How to Travel Light in a Heavy World: Wisdom is Free

As a self-proclaimed foodie, one of my preferred ways to travel is on a large and luxurious cruise ship because we consume all of this “free food.” I mean, who doesn’t love a free frozen treat after a long day spent exploring the hot and humid Caribbean islands? Then there’s the hard-working crew who are often the friendliest and sweetest people you will ever meet. They will make you feel like royalty for every dinner, particularly on those nights we get to wear our formal attire.

The Art of Traveling Light

When we travel, we may have packed a sedative to calm our anxiety. A sedative may be a temporary solution to relieve us from our nerves and our pain, but God wants us to seek something a lot more permanent to cure our wounds. Instead of numbing our pain, we should be praying for a more long-term solution, for wisdom to enter our hearts (Proverbs 2:10).

Where Feet May Fail

About 3 years ago, Kenny asked me the most important question of his life and I gave him the most important answer of mine. Six months later, we got married. Although we only dated for six months and were engaged for another six, our relationship carried a lot of fear then. Fear of failure, fear of the future, fear of… you name it! It just so happened that our pastor’s teaching lesson at the time was on fear. God used Pastor Bob Coy to help us get through those months of anxiety and fear of how marriage would be like.
