Yesterday at diving practice we were learning how to fall. That may sound weird but we were falling backwards. For those of you who have ever been in gymnastics or know what a back bend is that's basically what we were doing until our arms hit the water ( our arms were above our head). And I realized that I need to do the same thing with God. I keep bridging and bridging the gap between me and God until I eventually just fall back but unlike diving i need to fall back faster; stop bridging the gap go to God with every sin and ask for forgiveness. Go to God with every prayer request and ask for healing or help or whatever the request might be. Go to God with every joy and every sorrow. I need to stop Bridging the gap between me and God and just start falling. I need to fall hard into His arms and know that no matter what I've done he will catch me. Maybe you are already falling back into God's arms. But if your not I want you to with every thing that happens fall back-take the time to pray, or even just go outside and look around and see the beauty of God's creation.
