Yan ang pinakasimpleng prisipyo sa anumang biyahe. Travel light. Di mo kailangang dalhin ang iyong buong kusina o aparador pag meron kang biyahe. You must be unencumbered by baggage. Napakapraktikal na payo. Commonsensical pa. Pero what is common sense is not common practice. Napakaraming tao ang nagpapahirap sa sarili dahil sa paglalakbay sa buhay ng sobrang daming dalahin. Kaya, take my advise. Sa paglalakbay mo, huwag kang magdala ng maraming bitbitin.
Pag may dinadala kang sama ng loob, para kang naglalakad na may nakasabit sa leeg mong isang bag ng semento. Mabigat na dalahin yan. Mahirap ang may extra baggage. Pag may excess baggage ka kasi, nabigatan ka na sa pagbubuhat, magbabayad ka pa ng penalty. Mabigat na sa katawan, mabigat pa sa bulsa, mabigat pa sa damdamin. So tama talaga ang prinsipyo: travel light. Applicable pala ito sa anumang bahagi ng buhay mo.
Kaya naman tama ang tagubilin ng Panginoon: “Carry no money bag, no sack, no sandals…”(Luke 10:4). In a way the Lord is telling us to walk through life without being burdened by extra baggage. Ask yourself now: what’s weighing on my mind? What keeps me from traveling much easier and faster in this journey of my life? What are the unnecessary things I keep carrying in my heart that I need to unload now? Are you weighed down by so much worries, anger, disappointments, hatred, attachments to material possessions, lavish lifestyle, arrogance, hypocrisy, envy, fears, guilt, bitterness, etc?
Come to Jesus and leave it all at his feet. Leave it all to God. Let go and let God. Experience what it feels to be free to follow Him. Experience the joy of being unencumbered by baggage. Move ahead faster and find joy in life. That’s what Jesus wants you to be – fully alive!
