Flying

A couple of posts inspired me this morning; LL & Shadraq, life giving and insightful as usual. They made me think… Concerning my spiritual journey…

Where am I?
Where do I want to be?
How do I get from here to there?

Shadraq’s post made me realize that I am what I eat and challenged me to consider my spiritual diet. What have I been feeding on? What do I consume on a regular basis? Is it life giving or life draining? Am I light-er for the feeding or heavy laden?

LL’s post challenged me to resist what’s safe and expected and normal. If I’m created to live a Spirit empowered supernatural life then… What risks of faith lie before me? How do I view the edge, as friend or foe? Do I fear falling or am I eager to fly? As I approach my 50’s am I looking for a plateau to settle down or are my eyes fixed upon the summit?

The winds of change are indeed blowing. I feel it upon my face and sense it within my soul. I can hear the Spirit say “come up higher”. It’s time to leave the safety of the ledge behind, it’s time to fly.

  1. Whenever God has called us to fly, flying with you made it less scary. Always remember, I'm with you.
