Interrupting the Schedule
The government has planned an interruption to everyone’s schedule for an hour on Thursday afternoon. (Actually, the announcements are not yet clear whether it lasts for an hour or only half an hour.) As part of the current Taiwan Forces Military Exercises, the public will participate in an air raid drill. No one is to be outside or driving down the street during the drill.
Lorne learned today that because the drill will be during the time we usually travel to teach English, the classes we teach will be cancelled on Thursday afternoon.
It is an experience that is different from recent memory in Canada. But it happens about once each year for us in our adopted land.
It has made me think. There are times in life when the wisest response is to run and hide. That is why Psalm 32:7 says: “You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance.” When is the last time you ran to God for protection?
I (Lorne) will try to remember to put some music on to remind me that God’s protection includes surrounding me with songs of deliverance.
