Upwinds

You might wonder how those seemingly little birds can get above those high mountains, while you have to increase your effort the higher up you climb.  Well, you are not a bird.  The bird need not be big, but it needs the desire to get over the mountain to survive.  So God gave them some help and it comes in God's wind.  Birds have to make a big effort in the beginning of the climb, just to go up.  Your effort is easier at the beginning.  But then you don't need to climb the mountain to survive.  The  bird climbs/flies battling the wind for a while, but as it nears the peak, the wind naturally goes upward, like an upward draft near the peak. God loves birds.  So when you are making your greatest effort, sucking for oxygen, the bird simple is letting the wind lift it up and over the mountain and go on its way, while you, panting, look up.  So whenever you think there is no god and no plan, look up.  God is at work.
