Taking Flight

 Please review the post Taking Flight Preview for the story behind this photo shoot.

Realization

God is not high up in the sky

When you pray, you shouldn't be talking to the unknown

God is in you. Listen. There is a voice.

Some people call it the conscience.  We all have it.  Who is it?  Not me. 

Let It speak.

Deep into the darkness feel light

Close your eyes

Breath into the depths of your soul

Its alive

Freedom

Gravity is defied

Floating like a feather in mid-air

Plucked from the bird in motion

Constantly flapping its wings

Stillness

Calm

Quiet

Understanding

Reflect on the lightness

Become enlightened 

Reach. Go. Soar.

When the time is right, leap.

Hope. 

Soar on wings like eagles. (Isaiah 40:31)
