Hard to believe it was a month like this... the 17th day of the second month and a Bible ago to be exact... that Noah and his family entered the ark with 40 days and nights of relentless rain ahead of them.   And, where they would remain until the 27th day of the second month a year later, when the earth was dried and God directed them out of the ark.  What a time it must have been... to be the only 8 living people on earth with such a task as theirs... to rebuild and renew a world.   To start where they were and look forward... one goal at a time, one day at a time.  Each of us do indeed have deep relation, and each of us, in our own unique way, will have journeys of rain and devastation in our lives, be it physical devastation as the earthquakes in Haiti, financial devastion amidst the flailing economy, familial devastation or health, emotional well-being or experiences that shake spirituality and belief itself.  Each of us will traverse waters and waves.  The key for Noah, his family, and for us, was and is to choose to trust God, even when there is reason to question, reason to turn away, reason to be frustrated or despairing or broken with whatever the circumstance may be.  "Be still, and know that (He) is God"... is a choice... To choose to be still, steadfast in one's convictions, immovable in one's loyalty and know, no matter how deep the darkness gets... that He is God and He will set things right... in His time and in His way.  It is a choice... 
 
It is a month like this, the 28th day of the second month in our day, the Be Still and Know tour begins.  Grateful for the message and look forward to sharing in your home town.  God bless.

A time to begin again, a time of errand, a time to send...
 
To stir the gift within, to be about the Father's business, to strengthen and defend all that is good, all that is true, all that is right.  A time to strive for that meaningful end.
 
"All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost.  From the ashes a fire shall be woken, a light from the shadows shall spring; renewed shall be blade that was broken, the crownless again shall be king"  J.R.R. Tolkien
 
"Let us lay aside every weight... and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross... and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God."  Hebrews 12:1-2
