Psalm 19:1-4 The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they display knowledge. There is no speech or language where their voice is not heard. Their voice goes into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.
As we set sail for our next destination, we look forward to the adventure God has in store for us. Sailing allows us to experience God’s creation through the blessing of all of our senses! We see numerous shades of blue and green, sea creatures and star lit nights. We hear the wind blowing through the rigging and wave as they slap the hull. We taste and smell the fresh salt air as well as some things not so pleasant. We feel warm breeze, the force of the waves, the power of a fresh breeze, cool rain on our skin and tired at day’s end. As we experience God’s creation, we feel alive!
Blessed to be flexible, we are called to sail toward the Son, for the Son, throughout the Bahamas and Caribbean. We serve where God leads us with the understanding that it’s good for a ship to be in the sea but it’s bad when the sea gets into the ship. For we are God’s craftsmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. (Ephesians 2:10)
We believe to love one another means to use the gifts we were blessed with according to His will. Relationships matter most. While living our life’s adventures, we strive to be joyful, patient, faithful in prayer, share with those in need and practice hospitality. We find joy in being a blessing to others by encouraging, serving and giving unexpected gifts.
Blessings to you two as you have uncleated your dock lines and sail for the Son in other Latitudes.
Looking forward to standing watch with you on an adventure to follow the Son as well.
