the wind

Tonight
as I write these words the winds are blowing with some strength. The
trees are swinging and I can hear the wind whistle though the fire
place chimney. I have a healthy respect for the wind. It can do a
great deal of damage. I also know from taking some bike rides in it
that the wind can slow a bike ride. I also know that try as I might
the wind blows where it wants to blow.

I
have always loved how Jesus once said in the Gospel of John that the
Spirit of God is like the wind. Jesus said that the Spirit blow
where it wants. As I watch the tree swaying I am reminded that God
works in mysterious ways. And tonight as I go to bed I am reminded
again that I am a mere human and do not understand all of God’s
ways. This does not cause me to lose any sleep but rather to affirm
that I trust God who is far superior to me in all ways.
