The Journey to the Heart

The longest journey is from our head to the heart. We journey together, although we travel alone. We feel lost and alone traveling on this arduous road. On this path we find travelers like ourselves searching for what we feel and believe is missing. Everyone is frantically searching for that missing link. We can’t truly see, we have lost our vision. We grab on with our clinging hands to something or someone as if this, is our lifeline. The answer to our search, to that which will complete us and finally make us happy. It slips from our hands and we can’t hold onto it. For it is not the answer. We search not knowing that what we seek already lies within ourselves. We are told this, taught this but for some reason, we do not believe it. So the external search continues. When we are finally spent, broken and left with that gaping hole in our heart and soul, we come up for air. We gasp for air, we say a prayer, ask for help and we breathe life back into our lives. We begin the journey towards truth, we dive into the depths of our soul for the answers, for it is only there that they can be found. Then and only then is when we are led from our head to our heart, and the process begins…

Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free…John 8:32
