Chasing for the Elusive Gold, "Time"

Everyone is ready to have the arduous trek toward the summit of the mountain. Their basic necessities are all packed. Their appearance reflects the shadow of an undefeated daredevil armored with a staunch heart and unflinching faith. They are totally loaded; hence, it has made the journey insurmountable. Since they think how mighty they would be if optimism incessantly envelopes them, they confidently make an all-out assurance that the impediments will turn into bubbles as they use their sword of wisdom and stay endlessly on the palm of the master guiding them.
When they are at the foot of the fascinating yet humongous mountain, their hearts are filled with hope. Even the minute dot or obscure scar of hopelessness is nonexistent. All that dwells inside is the ardent hope.They continue treading the way, enjoy watching the terrific view and obey the master's instructions. Indeed, it is a delectable day for everyone. The balmy breeze and the exquisite weather give more delight to every trekker's heart.
Amazingly, the unanticipated gloomy skies flabbergast them. The surrounding becomes melancholic. An eerie feeling blankets every trekker's heart. It penetrates their whole body. It rules over them.It nabs their passionate hearts and extinguishes the ardor within. The master unfailingly leads the flock and eradicates each ill-feeling baffling everyone by his meaningful words of wisdom." Come, follow me! I will lead you the way, help you discover the truth and give you life. Do not be afraid. I am with you forever!" One trekker reacts, " But Master, the darkness cripples us. Are you sure we can get there?" The master confidently answers him through a nod.They continue walking...While everyone's heart is uplifted by the master's unwavering assurance, an audible voice echoes. " My feet are already tired. My whole body seems to collapse." My dear brother, rest if you must but don't quit. Time fleets fast. Giving up isn't a winner's choice but a loser's curse. Do what I say and strength will be yours again."

The darkness envelopes us.We feel tired and feeble.Nevertheless, there's SOMEONE guiding us in threading the path toward happiness....That's one of the realities about how magnificent God is...His presence in our lives in inexplicable revelations is a mere proof that He loves us boundlessly.
