FALLING FORWARD!

What a gorgeous fall day - really cool, crisp and DRY!

When I think about falling forward, I remember Sandy Patti's book and talk she gave at Women of Faith. I can't get it out of my head right now. She shared the story of how she and her brother would be on the small shed roof top. Her dad would coax them to fall forward and he would catch them. "Trust me" he said. Patti kept backing up. Her dad kept coaxing until she finally fell forward into the safety of his arms. She then talked about how she soon related that to Falling Forward into the arms of God. Sometimes we have to just let what is tugging us backward GO. We just need to inch forward trusting that God will catch us in the safety of His plan.

I look at all those leaves that are falling and I think about a situation I am in right now. So, it is time for me to inch my way down the roof and Fall Forward! Jeremiah 29: 11/14. And, of course Deut. 31: 8.

Have a wonderful Fall!
