Faith is like the flying trapeze

My friend Lauri is a wise and insightful woman.

Today as we caught up after my trip to Jersey she was saying how if we want to catch hold of a new thing in our lives we have to let go of the old. Just like a the trapeze artist has to let go of one 'swing' and take the leap into fresh air to be able to grasp the second 'swing'.

We agreed; such is the nature of faith; letting go of what we have held tightly to trusting our leap will coincide with God's provision.

All apt stuff for I am about to take another leap of faith. But more on that later...
For now may I wish any who read this and all who do not a wonderful, joyful and delightful 2012
