The main purpose of a parachute is to slow your descent from the air so that you can land safely. I don’t know about you, but I’ve always wanted to Skydive. To see the earth from that far up and actually see what it would be like to fly! But the one thing that stays in my head is….will the parachute open? The more important question might be, will my reserve parachute open? You’d hope you won’t need it, but if you did??

Now in my spiritual walk I have to admit I’m the typical male, being that I like to try to resolve or fix problems myself before I pull the chute! You might say I try to be the main chute and then trust…or maybe more accurately pray that God will be my reserve chute. Today I want you to ponder who’s packing “your chute” and which one are you relying on?
