Follow the yellow Brick Road.


Our souls journey takes us on a path of discovery. Much like Dorothy and her friends in the wizard of oz each one was seeking after something they thought they did not have. Dorothy wanted to find her home and in the end everything she loved and needed she already had. . The Tin man wanted a heart of compassion , The Scarecrow sought after a Brain full of Wisdom, and the Lion longed for Courage. After they reached the Great and Powerful Wizard Of Oz he gave them tasks to do that helped them discover that they had what they were seeking after all along. They just needed to believe it. We are certainly on our own path and every adventure helps us to realize who we are and what we are capable of doing. Dorothy stopped to take the time to reach out to others while she sought after a path that would lead her back home. The Bible teaches us that the streets of heaven are pure Gold, like transparent glass. I wonder if when we look at ourselves in the mirror the image we see of ourselves is one of a Pure Heart, Wisdom and Courage. If not perhaps our next path should  be to follow the yellow brick road that leads to the mighty and all Powerful God.
