Destiny

Your destiny in life is both more general than being in a specific place at a specific time and also more difficult. It is generally easy to be at a specific address at a specific time. It is a great deal more difficult to fulfill your destiny in spiritual terms. Your destiny from the time you are conceived until you leave your earthly body is to be a child of God. Getting to a specific street address at a specific time may be difficult, but in most cases, getting to the street address is humanly doable. To be a child of God is a great deal more difficult because to be a child of God we must renounce part of our humanity. To be a child of God we must turn away from the part of our life that makes us a sinner and turn to God. It is easier to arrive at your address in a cab than it is to reject our sinful self. It is because our destiny is to reject part of our sinful self and be children of God, that to reach our destiny in life we must kneel at the foot of the cross of Christ. If every human being on earth were to reach their destiny, all human beings on earth would meet at the foot of His cross. His cross is the ultimate address at which we are supposed to arrive. His cross is the ultimate address at which we are to live out our life.
