Or, are you more like the birds flying
            with  the  wind?  These  birds  were  not
            struggling. They were just “going with the
            flow.” Do you go with the flow? Do you
            speed  forward  at  an  accelerated  rate
            without  even  trying?  Are  you  at  peace
            and at rest, as you glide and soar above
            the  trouble  going  on  beside  you  and
            below you?

                The  birds  gliding  above  the  turmoil
            reminded me of the higher ways of God.
            The  birds  struggling  against  the  wind
            reminded  me  of  our  ways,  which  can
            often lead to all sorts of problems. The
            wind seemed to say, follow the leading of
            the Holy Spirit.

                Why should we continue to struggle,
            plummet, and tread water, determined to
            go our own way? The ability to rise above
            the problems emerges as we go with the
            flow  of  the  Holy  Spirit.  Find  peace  and
            rest by soaring above the problems that
            pass through our lives.
