I know. I’m 43.
Aladdin looks at the princess, asking her to join him on the magic carpet. She’s dubious, but he puts out his hand and says, Do you trust me?
Is it safe?, she asks.
He ignores the question and instead repeats his.
Do you trust me?
She looks him in the eye -not at the carpet hanging in mid air -in the eye. Gauging who he is before saying yes and stepping on.
Living in obedience to God is totally a magic carpet ride. Not overly safe. Rationally impossible. And awesome.
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and try not to think about how ridiculous climbing on a magic carpet is (Christy’s version).” (Proverbs 3:5)
Do you trust me?
