The Sails are up!



Wow! This is a huge revelation this morning that I want to share with those who care....


For the last year, I feel like we have been in a small sailboat - in the middle of the ocean - in the 'perfect storm'. The waves are 50+ feet high, rain is pouring down, and we are completely disoriented and hopeless.... EXCEPT - for that small glimmer of hope that we know is in the Lord. We could not see it - or pick it up on our instruments, but knew it in our spirit. We also knew that our little boat - our only way to cling to life was about to burst apart by the pressure.


Yesterday - the waters calmed. Today - our sails are up. The sunshine is back out, and only we know how severe this storm was... We're thankful to be alive, blown away that we survived, and profoundly thankful for that 'glimmer of hope' we had in the Lord.


HE rewards those who earnestly seek Him, and tells us that it's impossible to please God without faith. Thank God for that little 'mustard seed' of faith - to hang on - until HE came to our rescue.


Our Redeemer lives!
