Flying Lessons

The hummingbird was sleeping in
When mother shook his wing
Wake up John it’s time for class
I heard the school bell ring!

He opened first one tiny eye
Then peeked out of the nest
He knew the day for flying lessons
What was his mom planned next

So out the door with trembling heart
John’s wings began to beat
Then up into the wind He flew
To lessons down the street!

But this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:13-14 KJV

A Time to Fly!”

No matter what lies in front of us, the sun will rise. Whatever unknown blessings or dangers lie in our path God remains at the helm of the universe. Today is chosen by him as the perfect day to accomplish His purpose and will in some way. We must trust that He keeps all things running according to His schedule and that no matter how slow of fast things seem to be happening; they are all perfectly on time.

Trusting fully in His care does not keep us from challenges or storms but it gives us His peace and to carry us through. Fear shouts, “Get down, stay in hiding, you can not escape!”. Faith answers, “No! My God is in control!” then gives us wings to fly.

To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven:
Ecclesiastes 3:1 NKJV
