To Fly

I have jumped off a cliff in the hope that I will sprout wings. I have done so with the full knowledge that if I don't sprout wings and fly I will plummet. Why do it then? Because I believe in the goodness of my God, and I have just enough faith in the gift's He's given me to take the risk, the risk that I have heard His heart for me correctly. Risks not taken are a life not lived. And if I do plummet, well, I believe in resurrection power.

"It is better to live one day as a lion, than a thousand as a coward."
