To be agile

I was observing some fishes in a tiny pond swam around when one of them suddenly bursted into full speed and, just as suddenly, came to a full stop. At other times, it and the other fishes leaped into the air.

Agility is not something that comes to mind when observing the behaviours of Christians. They tend to change slowly and, once they do, they resist the next change. Reminds me of the Israelites in the Bible.

In recent years, I have experienced big and small changes of all kinds. In some cases, there were times when I thought God withheld his protection and I had to experience pain. But I survived intact - he did not leave me with zero protection. Through it all, God has always been there with me every step of the way.

He has been training me to be agile - to do his will his way.
