I Love To Fly!
RC planes are a popular hobby that I really enjoy. The “Oh Yeah!” feeling of flying an aircraft, even if it’s just a small model, is awesome. But did you know that RC planes can also teach us important lessons about faith? The Bible teaches us to have faith and trust in God’s plan for us. In Matthew 17:20, Jesus tells his disciples, “Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” RC planes may be small in size, but they require a great deal of faith and trust in the equipment and in our own abilities as RC pilots.
Building an RC plane from scratch can also teach us about accomplishing something, especially if it’s hard. It takes time and effort to build an RC plane, and it can be pain in the you know what when things don’t go as planned. However, with patience, we can overcome obstacles and achieve our goals. Like, in our spiritual lives, we must be positive through challenges and setbacks and trust that God will guide us through difficult times.
Flying an RC plane can also teach us about the importance of focus. We must carefully prepare our planes for flight, ensuring that all systems are working properly and that we are trained as RC pilots. Once in flight, we must stay focused and alert, making adjustments as necessary to keep the plane on course. This level of practice and focus can add to our spiritual lives as well. We must be prepared and focused in our faith, constantly seeking to deepen our relationship with Christ and stay on the path he has set for us.
Flying RC planes can be a fun way to connect with others and share our faith. Whether it’s hanging out at the RC flying clubs or hosting events that involve RC planes and fellowship, there are many ways to use this hobby as a tool. We can share our love of RC planes with others while also sharing our love of Christ.
So, RC planes can teach us important lessons about faith, preparation, and focus. Whether you’re an experienced pilot or just starting out, there are many opportunities to connect your love of RC planes with your love of Christ. So, the next time you’re flying your plane (or want to start), take a moment to reflect on the lessons you can learn and how you can use this hobby to grow in your faith and serve others.
