My brother in law took his first flight in a glider yesterday. This is the moment I captured the glider lifting into the air, towed by a powered aircraft. His flight lasted 20 minutes..he couldn’t stop smiling all day!!!
It spoke to me about many things, but most of all it was trust that came to the fore. His trust in his instructor and the pilot flying the tug.
Trust is at the heart of any relationship, which also includes God’s love for each of us. Without trust we become aimless and lost. But as we give trust to another, and ultimately to God, incrimentaly our souls expand and fear shrinks
In our experience sometimes trust can be betrayed and that can be devastating, God’s love, in my experience, is constant, like the power of the wind, and the lift of the glider.
