Kites and Puppets

What do kites and puppets have in common? That's right... Strings. We often want to live our lives with "no strings attached" because we want control of our own lives. Strings aren't always a bad thing though. Without strings a puppet lies uselessly on the stage floor. Without a string, a kite will not fly. It needs the lift of the wind to make it rise, but the tug of the string to keep it grounded. Similarly, we need God pulling the strings in our live!
