There is a great endless pleasure, a deep satisfying joy that never runs dry. It is the ultimate reward and the highest significance one can obtain. Nothing, nothing can compare to it. It is the journey of following Christ, the Greatest Calling. And, our Lord Jesus offers it to all.
But, you must know, it will come at an immense cost, that will take everything you’ve got. You see, the journey of Christ will always lead to The Cross, a long painful march towards one’s death. There will be brutal unjust beatings along the way, all the while, a mocking crowd watches on. And, in the end one’s heart will be ripped in two. It is an unparalleled pain. Yet, it is the only way to share with Jesus in the intimacy of His sufferings.
What tremendous joy awaits those who are willing! It is of supreme worth. It is the pleasure of The Father and the great honor of being seated with Christ and reigning with Him.

Amen. That is why it is so hard to enjoy the journey at times. But what comes to mind is What Paul said, which is to be Content.
