Psa 78:6 "He caused the East wind to blow in the heaven: and by His power He brought in the South wind."
There is so much about this old world that we still don't understand. The more I look into it the more it proves the old adage "the more you know, the more you know you don't know". Living here in Kansas, I have learned that anything less that about 40 mph is just a slight breeze. The wind is something that I had to get accustomed to when we moved here. Sure, there has always been wind wherever we have lived, but nothing like it is here. So, it got me to thinking. Yes, thinking. Where does the wind come from and where does it go? I know that it has something to do with the high pressures and the low pressures and the jet stream and all kinds of other things that I don't understand. But, why do we have to endure the wind, anyway? Okay, I am through complaining. Because the wind is really very valuable. We can now harness the wind and develop electricity. For hundreds of years the wind has been used to pump water or other uses of the wind mill. God uses the wind to stir the waters in ponds and lakes. The wind also cleans the earth by blowing away the debris, like the leaves from my neighbors yard into mine. It is those high strong winds that allows the eagle to lazily soar in the sky for hours at a time. You can't see the wind, but there is no doubt it is very real. It is like the presence of God. Yes, that's it, like the presence of God. A constant reminder that even though I can't see God He is always there and occasionally I fell His tender touch. So, go ahead and blow wind. Remind me again and again that my God is real and He is real close.
