Life on Rails

In a recent interview on Nightline, Rick Warren said the following. These thoughts are very timely for me:

... God is more interested in your character than your comfort.

God is more interested in making your life holy than He is in making your life happy.

Good reminders for me right now when I have gone through varying levels of comfort the past few months.

I used to think that life was hills and valleys - you go through a dark time, then you go to the mountaintop, back and forth. I don't believe that anymore.

Rather than life being hills and valleys, I believe that it's kind of like two rails on a railroad track, and at all times you have something good and something bad in your life.

Life on Rails? Now we're Getting Real! :-) (Sorry everyone, this is RoR nerd humor.)
