From time to time, I hear about a train jump-ing the track. I'm sure the train had a history of traveling its route many times over the years without incident. But, for some reason, this time it jumped the rail and crashed. It was now off-track and unable to continue on its journey.
The damages in such accidents will vary with each incident. Obviously, there are many factors that come into play. However, in even the slightest of derailments, the train is unable to continue on its journey. It can go nowhere until it is put back on "track".
Don't allow your spiritual "train" to become derailed. There are so many things that interfere with our journey. Don't allow yourself to get too busy, or too angry, or to have hurt feelings, or anything else that might cause you to slip off the tracks. If you are "derailed", please get back on track so you can continue your spiritual journey. Remember what awaits you at the end of the line. Oh, how beautiful heaven must be!
