The path we were walking on outside the building thousands of miles in the air was the typical width of a normal sidewalk. It was quite something. We circumnavigated the building, leaned over the edge, and looked down on the city so far below.
We were, of course, attached by a harness and ropes. This was good because sometimes people slip. I was chatting with one of the guides after our walk and he acknowledged that he has slipped more than once and that in that second before the ropes hold him secure, his heart beats a lot faster, as his instincts brace him for that fatal fall. Praise the Lord for the rope.
The Lord is like our rope in life. Our life is like a walk around the world's tallest building. Even the most experienced, skilled, and talented of us can stumble in this life. We can be tripped up by circumstances and events. Things happen to all and any of us. For those of us that put our trust in the Lord though, he is our salvation. He can pull us back up to the walkway and keep us safe in the midst of everything we face in this life.
Let us put our trust in God.
