Waves
We saw some powerful waves on our trip to the coast. Because the typhoon that crossed south of Taiwan affected the tides and waves, we saw 15-20 foot waves when we first went down to the south part of the island. A couple of days later the waves were back to their usual size.
Life is like that sometimes. We have seasons when busy-ness, emotional responses, or other pressures mount and threaten to overwhelm us. It is at those times that we are thankful for God’s promises that He will protect and help us to safely persevere.
We were refreshed by our vacation and dove into regular life commitments on our return. We recognize that dependence on God is necessary every day if we are going to be able to thrive in the ups and downs of life.
Mentors and Trailblazers
Do you have someone you look up to as a mentor or trailblazer? We all need people in our lives that help us to become who God wants us to be. Lorne is speaking next Sunday about choosing Godly Examples and Mentors. He would appreciate it if you could email him 2-3 sentences telling him what reasons or qualities make the person in your life to be a good spiritual mentor-trailblazer.
