Hang In There
By Mark Flippo
Left two photos are of the sky bridge spans around the gorge on Pulau Langkawi, which is the largest island in the Langkawi archipelago, Malaysia. It’s suspended at 687 m above sea level, offering magnificent views of the Andaman Sea and Thailand’s Tarutao Island. The view from the bridge is really breathtaking – its curves provide different perspectives of the landscapes. The Sky Bridge is one of the most spectacular bridges in the world that delivers quite a pump of adrenaline.
Upper right is a photo of The Royal Gorge Bridge is a tourist attraction near Cañon City, Colorado, within a 360-acre (150 ha) theme park. The bridge deck hangs 955 feet (291 m) above the Arkansas River, and held the record of highest bridge in the world from 1929 until 2003, when it was surpassed by the Beipanjiang River 2003 Bridge in China. It is a suspension bridge with a main span of 938 feet (286 m). The bridge is 1,260 feet (384 m) long and 18 feet (5.5 m) wide, with a wooden walkway with 1292 planks. The bridge is suspended from towers that are 150 feet (46 m) high.
Lower right is a photo of a centuries-old bridge in Greece spans the river Aoos, which is full in winter. If you look carefully to the right under the top of the bridge, you can see a small bell. Villagers say that when there is enough wind to make the bell sound, it is too dangerous to cross the bridge.
An absolute necessity in today's life. We have bridges where people never thought there could be one before! The designs are more intricate than ever! Our lives are enriched by and made easier by bridges. It is not surprising that God did the original bridging of gaps. He created beautiful natural treasures. He also bridged the gap between God and man. Jesus came and filled that gap so that we could find our way back to the Savior! So many are still lost and don't know their way across the great divide. Will you allow your heart to be opened and ready for Jesus to talk to you so you can share this Blessed Gospel of Peace with someone?
