Sometimes things look big and impossible like this climbing wall. With a little encouragement our granddaughter decided to give it a try. At first she didn’t know how those little climbing rocks could even help. But as she tested them and learned how to transfer her weight from one to another, she started getting the hang of it. Some seemed out of reach, but by relinquishing a foothold on one rock, she was able to grab the next rock and trust that she was still ok.
It seems like it takes practice to trust in the words of Jesus. But if we read them and think about them and try to use them in our actions, we can learn to climb on their principles.
