Unclaimed Baggage..........
Today Jacob and I went the the world famous Unclaimed Baggage. It is an interesting place. Cassandra went to High School with one of the owners. Unclaimed Baggage buys stuff left on airlines and other places for pennies by the pound. You can find just about anything. It is amazing to me to see how many things people loose on their trips.
It got me to thinking about the "baggage" that each of us carries. I saw Ed Young Jr speak at a conference about the baggage that each of us carry in our lives. He pulled on stage with a Mercedes 450 SL convertable. He said in relationships we all try to look like the Mercedes but if you look in the trunk -- we all have baggage. That is so true.
Here are my thoughts. What if we left our baggage unclaimed. Isn't that what Jesus did on the cross. When we accept Christ into our lives - he never tries to claim it again. Maybe we should leave our "baggage" unclaimed and move on with our lives. I don't think God intends for us to dwell and carry our baggage around. In Matthew 11:28-30 Jesus said to quit carrying heavy loads. I believe He wants us to leave our baggage unclaimed.
