The Mountaintop
One reason of our existence on earth is to be tested and to experience life in its full package.
I love nature trekking - green and cool breeze everywhere. Rivers, lakes, streams, waterfalls, trees, wildflowers, fruits, birds, stones, rocks, hills, and mountains – nature is, indeed, mesmerizing.
Life can be compared with mountain climbing. The mountaintop is our goal and the experience of the whole nature trekking is part of the climb.
Mountain climbing has its ups and downs. Experiencing uphill and downhill slopes is imperative. At the start of the trek, climbing seems so easy where we just simply walk and enjoy the scenery, jog, or maybe run as fast as we can to get to the top. On the other hand, there are times when the climbing gets really tough that we can’t even lift a foot to keep on moving. And if we don’t really immerse ourselves into the thought that we will be meeting countless natural elements before getting into the top, we will complain and will keep on complaining.
When we get so tired, the beautiful masterpieces our eyes are seeing become stumbling blocks. To us, they are keeping us away from our goals. We often grumble that without this river or rock, we could have reached the top faster and on-time. We, somehow, forget why these nature’s wonders exist.
They are not stumbling blocks but stepping stones. Each one gives us experience and taught us lessons. Each one is making us think. Each one is making us wise. Each one will serve as our aide if we know how to use them and convert them into stepping stones. If we don’t complain and take them as challenges, our climb to the top of the mountain will be full of adventure and fun.
My questions are… Are we not grateful that our Father in Heaven does not dictate every single thing to us? That He trusts us a lot? That we really are His and we belong to a wise Father? That we are patterned to Him? That if our Heavenly Father is wise and so we are?
He had His own share of life’s experiences before He became what He really is right now. That is what He wants us to do. Instead of complaining, we must accept whatever we meet in life and find ways to get through it. No matter how wide the rivers or how huge the rocks are in our lives, it doesn’t really matter. There is always a way to cross on the other side. There is always a way to keep on moving and reach our mountaintops.
Accepting life in its full package will help us reach the top. There may be rivers or rocks that would block our way but the wisdom that we inherited from God will assist us. They are part of the test. Complaining will not bring us to the top. Grumbling won’t give us a great view either. We just have to enjoy life’s adventure! Enjoy the beauties of nature and keep on climbing! Before we know it, we’re almost there! Almost to the mountaintop.
