Change

Without God, we may strive and try, but change will come in jagged shards, no more than unfitting bits and pitiful measures doled out to us as we bump along, numbly waiting for everything to fall into place. Left to our own devices, we whale away at great obstructions with tiny chisel and little mallet until our breath has left us. God, in contrast, is a great wind. Whatever plan God might devise … or accede to in reply to our pleadings … it is driven with the constant movement of air … breath of the Holy Spirit … the wind under our wings.
