The Shadow.

A shadow is a dark image projected onto a surface where light is blocked by the shade of an object. I think you know a shadow as well….

Once I boarded a vehicle to town A. It was early in the morning when the sun had began to set. While watching keenly from the inside, the shadow of the vehicle lengthened.

As the driver enjoyed his work, immediately the shadow landed alongside the road on the left side of the road. On that left side, there existed: sharp pointed stones, shrubs with their thorns sharply pointing, and large holes where waste enjoyed and dwelled there.

As the vehicle increased the speed the shadow too increased. When it was noon time the shadow secretely vanished and concealed itself under the heavily loaded vehicle.

Imagine in the eving in my return to home, the shadow strided itself infront of the vehicle as the other vehicles gave the source of light from the back.

This realization totally confused me sometime, but later I was about to cry and shed large amounts of tears because the shadow suffered alot.

Imagine the sharp stones, thorns that the shadow went through, it suffered instead of the passengers…… The Shadow is our God and the vehicle is when you abide yourself in Him while the sharp stones, thorns, holes are our challenges in this journey of life.

The moment you abide yourself in God, He will abide in you also. He will lift all your burdens and are you are freed.

The thorns might be your enemies and the moment they will stone and injure you, God will seal you. Therefore we need to abide in God and we will enjoy.

Join me and continue the race….. Daniel Ongoto.
