I came across the Triptik put together for our move from Ohio to Washington. I couldn't bring myself to throw it away. As I paged through it, I thought about the "Triptik" we have for our journeys here on earth.
Total distance: 2,477 miles from Worthington to Kirkland - that's one way
What's the "distance" from heaven (pre-earth life) to earth and then back again to heaven (life after death)? I"m pretty sure it can't be measured in miles. I'm glad we all have a round trip ticket!
Total estimated time: 35 hours, 22 minutes
Average life span - about 80 years
Travel package, trip planning, expenses & reservations - These hints for planning the trip come in handy.
Our journey here on earth benefits from planning - goal setting, learning from others about their journeys, education, scripture study, .. we have many resources to help us.
Warnings about construction and other hazards; information on how to navigate the multitude of routes through big cities
The scriptures and the Holy Spirit give us cautions and instructions
How to get help in emergencies
Fortunately we have a 24/7, free, always accessible wireless connect to God
Driving regulations - essential to know these for a successful trip
We've been given the 10 Commandments & other counsel that make for a smoother trip through this time on earth
What an adventure this life is! I'm thankful for the individualized "Triptik" we each have access to through the love of our Heavenly Father, the example and teachings of Christ, and the help of the Holy Spirit.
