Kite flying is something I have never done much of, but it is definitely something that I enjoy and can relate to in so many ways. My parents bought me a kite last summer to take on our vacation to the beach. My kite is so big and is in the shape of a shark. My kite has a really long tail that whips in the wind too. It causes me to reflect on something new and unique each time I fly it.
The first time I flew it I remember being so amazed at how easily the wind lifted it up into the air. I kept wondering if I had enough string to let it go as high as it wanted to go. The higher it went, it got a little harder to control because the wind kept tugging it as if it were trying to pull away from me. I remember thanking God for the wind. I kept wondering what it would be like to be a shark floating in the air above the ocean and seeing everything from a bird’s view. It was so peaceful to just watch it sway back and forth in the breeze. The white fluffy clouds seemed to dance in the background as if to say, “Look at us, we are the ocean waves now.” It seemed as if the sea and sky had switched places and I lost myself in the adventure of it all for a while.
The second time I flew my kite, I was thinking about God and how I wish my shark kite could reach heaven’s gates. I then thought that when my kite reached the gate that God could put a note on it and send it down to me. Wouldn’t that be cool? But as I watched my kite easily take off and climb higher and higher into the sky, I realized that I didn’t need God to send down a note. No, God could talk to me here and now, and in a way He was. I remembered from my Sunday School lessons that God’s word tells us in Isaiah 40:31: “– but they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk, and not grow faint.” The kite represents my soul soaring high above my problems on earth and my spirit seeks to find comfort in the Lord who will renew me to deal with my problems. It’s as if my soul has been set free to soar to the heavenly places.
