So yesterday while I was painting, I felt that the Holy Spirit was speaking to me. Took me a minute to figure out what He was saying, but I think I got it. He showed me an airplane. Then showed me it’s wings. You know how when you are on a plane with a window seat and you can see the wings? Know how those wings also have other flaps that can adjust to the wind and give more control? Well, the Holy Spirit was telling me that the wings of the plane will never change (all planes have wings) but what can change is their adjustment to certain types of weather, wind, etc.
So essentially I felt He was explaining to me the
balance between stability and flexibility. Stability in who I am in Him and Flexibility with WHERE I am (my environment)Flexibility:
1. capable of being bent, usually without breaking; easily bent
2. susceptible of modification or adaptation; adaptable
3. willing or disposed to yield; pliable
Flexibility is what changes- adjusts. (the flaps on the plane that adjust to the circumstances with the weather.)Stability is the “wings” to stay in the air. (All planes have wings- that never changes)I feel like the Lord is teaching us
(mostly me) how to be flexible and stable at the same time. I felt like the plane represents us in Mexico and He is teaching us how to adapt to our new environment-whether there be “turbulence” or blue skys- learning to be sensitive to the “wind” of the Spirit.
