Traveling Through Tunnels

Traveling through tunnels teaches us many lessons in life. It is like going into darkness hopping to see the light at the other end. Every tunnel is symbolic of dying to the former life and emerging to a new one. Leaving the old understanding and emerging into a new one. Some travel through tunnels at classified speeds and they better have their sunglasses on because the light is always brighter on the other side, Challenging death in the hope of new life instead of clinging on to the old in fear. What of the baby who holds back from entering the tunnel of death in fear of the light on the other side, he will be still born, spiritually dead. Death is life and life is death. The highway of life cuts tunnels through the mountains of obstacles and builds bridges over the valleys of despair making a road straight for the lord.
