Who do you trust?



 January 9

A winter storm is howling at BWI Airport in Baltimore. My flight to Tampa is delayed as crews plow the runways.

 
Finally it is our turn to take-off. While I pray the plane roars down that snowy runway and up into the swirling storm clouds. The aircraft shutters and shakes for until we climb above the storm. It is a smooth flight to Tampa.

 
When I entered that plane I had totally given up control and put my life in the hands of that pilot.

So why struggle giving the controls of my life to the Lord? Why can't I trust God to pilot my life’s journey? After all, who has had more experience?

 
"Trust the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.
(Proverbs 3:5)
