Take Your Breathe Away by Steve Martin

Takes Your Breathe Away

We landed in Denver, Colorado yesterday afternoon, David Lauka and myself. We had flown from Charlotte, North Carolina, to visit friends from decades ago, and new friends we met who are also involved with Christian Friends of Israel in Jerusalem.

Waking up in the middle of the night (not abnormal) I found myself thinking I was being suffocated. And then I realized I was 8,000 feet higher above sea level than being at home.

No wonder! The air was thinner and my lungs seemed to not get enough of it.

When the Lord transitions us from one location to another, one home to another, or one job for the growth to take part in another, we adjust. He has made us capable of doing that, as He works through us to accomplish His good desires.

Sometimes it literally takes your breathe away. And then to see His beautiful creation in the midst of the change.

Keep up the good work, Lord!

Ahava and shalom,
