Jesus or Bust

I am utterly amazed at the grace, mercy, love, and patience of Jesus Christ.  Have you ever become annoyed by someone asking the same question over and over you have already answered?  Sometimes we are like that with Jesus.  Life settles down, things get routine, and we start questioning: what am I doing?  Do I make a difference?  Am I answering his call for my life?  It is not a bad thing to ask these questions, but remember if you started off following his plan, and you have not willfully disobeyed him, then you just may be going through one of those times where you just have to stick it out.  It is the daily faithfulness of the everyday saint, not the famous sermon or hit song, that is the engine of the Church.  Sometimes it helps to just think of this part of the journey as the straight stretch; enjoy the peace, enjoy the pace, and be ready for the hills and curves up ahead.  Also, don't forget to fasten your sign securely, so everyone knows that no matter what lies ahead, it is "Jesus or Bust."
