TAKE OFF INTO THE WIND
An airplane takes off into the wind. God doesn’t allow resistance and challenges to be in our path to defeat us, but to lift us up, to strengthen our resolve and our ability to confront them.
“Against the wind
I'm still runnin' against the wind
I'm older now but still running
Against the wind.”
—Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band
Life doesn't always get better.
But you do.
You get stronger.
You get wiser.
You get softer.
With tattered wings you rise.
And the world watches in wonder
at the breathless beauty of
a human who survived life .
—L.R. Knost
