Sailing in peace

A strange phenomenon is happening.

This week is one of the most stressful all year at work, with everyone scurrying around to prep for the HPBC New Workers Orientation, Annual Meeting, and Celebrate Missions. One of my bosses is out of town, so I have more responsibilities this year.

Exciting times...I will be visiting Dan, leaving Saturday night and returning on Wednesday. And frustration with a kidney stone and infection that has Dan on "status 7", meaning he's temporarily off the transplant waiting list.

Back to the strange phenomenon...peace in the flurry. I am in the middle of a whirlwind, yet very calm and focused, even smiling. It certainly passes all my understanding (Phil 4:7).

The only explanation I have is the power of prayer. So many are praying for us, and God has answered your prayers. I wanted you to know that.

I recently learned a fun song called "Sailing". I pray you will also sail in peace.

With Christ in my vessel, I can smile at the storm
Smile at the storm, smile at the storm
With Christ in my vessel, I can smile at the storm
As I go sailing home.

Sailing, I'm sailing home
Sailing, I'm sailing home
With Christ in my vessel, I can smile at the storm
As I go sailing home.

Gratefully,
Debbie
