"It is as if we are all on a trapeze, swinging. Just as we become comfortable on one bar we have to let go, and wait, our feet firmly planted in mid-air, for the other bar to come into our grasp.We can only let go, wait, and recover, because someone on the ground is shouting encouragement to us: "You can do it." God is the source of that encouragement, but the director is often the means for that encouragement to be heard and heeded."

hello! and thank you for your blog!
ReplyDeleteJust the visual thought I need, Roberta! Yes, in many ways, I am waiting for the other bar. I'm so grateful that God is in charge of being sure the bar is there when I need it......... I can certainly trust Him!
ReplyDeleteOn that thought, I am sure to be able to turn OFF the computer and go get a good night's sleep, trusting God that the bar will indeed appear!
I'll echo the Rambler, and say "THANK YOU for your blog!"
A trapeze person is a perfect example of what true faith is always having to let go of the past and know that there is something waiting for you on the other side.
