100 percent
They call it ‘white-out’. We were up there in a ridiculously tiny plane, totally engulfed in white clouds. We were utterly dependent on the expertise of the young man in the pilot’s seat.
We four passengers looked at each other with eloquent grimaces after a couple of severe lurches. We couldn’t talk because of engine noise, but we were obviously disturbed.
His smile and the raised eyebrows signalled the question, "Are you OK?"
We smiled back affirming we were OK and that, while ever he was in charge, we were 100% with him.
Nine thousand feet up there aren’t any choices anyway so we couldn’t take much credit for our loyalty.
But I am glad we chose to be 100% with the pilot because it made his job a little easier. Jesus once said,
“He who is not with Me is against Me.” Matthew 12:30
Perhaps when we are 100% with Him, it makes His job a little easier, too.

The
pilot’s quick look around was comforting.
