Taxi or take off

by Bruce Wadd

 

I sat on the hill overlooking the airport watching the first two planes of the day prepare for departure.

 

Before long both were moving, their navigation lights flashing their intention.  They were headed in the same direction, moving along the runway, but the noise soon uncovered a difference I hadn’t noticed.

 

One was taxiing to the end of the runway, whilst the other was all systems go … ‘full throttle’ towards its destination.  The end result was going to be vastly different!

 

Are you taxiing around the airport, or tearing down the runway for God?

 

Paul, an important writer of the New Testament, gave us his example to follow…

 

“So let’s keep focused on that goal,

 those of us who want everything God has for us.”

Philippians 3:15 TM

 

TODAY, push the throttle to full … on your knees!
