God showed me an image of a trampoline. I was jumping and I was reminded that it isn't easy to get yourself up into the air - you have to exert energy and give something. Once you've given your energy and strength, you are plunged into the air and for that moment you've given up your control as well. You trust. As you jump up and down, it demonstrates the ups and downs of life that we encounter. The frame of the trampoline will hold you up and keep you strong. The netting around the trampoline holds you and keeps you safe from falling. The bottom of the trampoline is blackened, and hard to see through, however the top of the trampoline is open so you can keep your eyes fixed on looking up. Close your eyes and picture yourself jumping on a trampoline. Let your body be swayed by the image of God's love, protection, and encouragement. Don't be afraid anymore.
