Psalm 139:9-10
If I take the wings of the morning
and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea.
Even there your hand shall lead me.
Your right hand shall hold me.


She sat there staring at the plane.
She had never been on a plane.
 She couldn't wait to get there but she 
was scared.
Scared to do something she had never done before.
Her dad held her hand and sat by her in the seat.
He kept telling her she had nothing to worry about.
She felt better knowing he was there.

When we landed she wasn't scared any more in fact
she thought it was amazing.
She couldn't wait to fly again.

At times
I too, am scared.
I can't wait to get there, but I am afraid of the flight.
How long is going to be?
Is it going to be bumpy?

Is God calling me to work on something in my life.
Is He calling me to do something that might take me out of 
my comfort.
Is He wanting me to do something new?? 
Something I have never done before.
That alone scares me.
I like safe.....

But I know that even in the times I am scared,
even in the times I don't want to.
Even in the times I say no,
and argue.
Even if it takes me a year to say yes....

He is there comforting me and holding me.
Always with me.
Whispering in my heart,
encouraging me.

I can't flee from God.

And I pray that my words will always be....
I can't wait to fly again.
