Life is a journey and some even said it's a race and we all run it differently. Whatever life may be to you either race or journey we all have different ways to go through it, some crawl, some treck, some run and some use other means of transportation to run there race or journey i.e bike, car aeroplane and some even use boat depending on the path you choose to follow. The most important thing is to get to our destination safely. Life is like an Ocean which we all have to sail through with a boat. And the kind of people you carry along in your boat can or will determine if you will have a safe sailing asin journey mercy. There are some people who you took along in your boat that won't guarantee you a journey of mercy, safe landing. you might even land well but not complete. Complete in the sense that your luggage might not be completed by the time you reach your destination.
You might have lost many goodies on your way because of the storm you met on your way while sailing through life cause of the kind of people you carried along. Your journey should have ended well even if you face some challenges on your way but the kind of people in your boat didn't allow it to be so. A mighty storm arises on your way and your boat seems to sink if you did not offload the boat of some luggage so as to navigate your way well through the storm and overcome it just because of the people you take along your journey in your boat. At times most of them don't have luggage to lose but they make you lose yours because they journey with you. Look at Jonah in the scripture he has no luggage but yet made others lose their goodies because he join them in the boat. Know the kind of people you accept to journey with you, not all friends, families or relations can journey with you. You can afford to journey with just anyone because of what you're carrying if not you will lose some of your luggage cause of this person's you're taking along with you, not because they are bad but because they can't journey with you.
Jonah has no luggage but makes others lose theirs and they have lost many things before realizing the cause of their challenges is this man that has nothing to lose. Before you end up in had I know check your boat now to see the kind of people journeying with you, should they be in the boat if not drop them off now so you won't have to regret later. Learn from the story of Jonah, he had nothing to add to them, it was recorded that he was sleeping when others were finding ways to navigate through the storm i.e he's just there doing nothing, not contributing anything to them, he just lie down there in the boat useless. Is that the kind of people you allow to in your boat, they don't add to you financially, marritaly, not even single business idea to add to your journey they are just their like matter that has weight and just occupying space. Biko drop them off your boat right now! If you can't ask God to help you take them of your boat. With God all things are possible.
