When traveling, it’s wise to travel light by only taking the essentials. This provides an advantage of moving faster between destinations as traveling light usually translates to fewer and lighter luggage. Conversely, packing more than what is necessary will slow us down. The same holds true for our lives. We can pack only the essentials and move unencumbered toward the things that God has set before us or we carry excessive and unnecessary weight that hinders our momentum. Some of the things that weigh us down excessively are anger, unforgiveness, and fear.
