Well this is a fast week. Wednesday already.
😅
Got cabin fever and went shopping today.

Found some nice Christmas cards for half price, and some peppermint/chocolate squares.

It is warm today, middle 40s.

I bet it’s been 25 years since I bought cards before Christmas.
I was glad to find some 3 days after Christmas.

I forgot to buy them last year AFTER Christmas, and ended up paying $44.00 to but enough this year BERORE Christmas. I’ll never get caught like that again.

It’s already Thankful Thursday.
What a weird week.
It is 50 degrees. Weird.
Trying to get motivated to put the saddle in my truck and go see horsie.
The bears have it right, hibernation.

Have a great day!

Had a nice time with horsie. Wow is it warm outside. All the horses are glad too. Last week wasn’t fun for them I am sure. Everybody’s thawed out and happy.

Grace Amid the Chaos
Read: Psalm 107:23–32

They were glad when it grew calm, and he guided them to their desired haven. Psalm 107:30

I was drifting off into an impromptu nap when it hit me. From the basement, my son ripped a chord on his electric guitar. The walls reverberated. No peace. No quiet. No nap. Moments later, competing music greeted my ears: my daughter playing “Amazing Grace” on the piano.

Normally, I love my son’s guitar playing. But in that moment, it jarred and unsettled me. Just as quickly, the familiar notes of John Newton’s hymn reminded me that grace thrives amid the chaos. No matter how loud, unwanted, or disorienting the storms of life might be, God’s notes of grace ring clear and true, reminding us of His watchful care over us.  

We see that reality in Scripture. In Psalm 107:23–32, sailors struggle mightily against a maelstrom that could easily devour them. “In their peril, their courage melted away” (v. 26). Still, they didn’t despair but “cried out to the Lord in their trouble, and he brought them out of their distress” (v. 28). Finally, we read: “They were glad when it grew calm, and he guided them to their desired haven” (v. 30).

In chaotic moments, whether they’re life-threatening or merely sleep-threatening, the barrage of noise and fear can storm our souls. But as we trust God and pray to Him, we experience the grace of His presence and provision—the haven of His steadfast love.Adam Holz

When have you experienced God’s haven of peace in other people? To whom might you offer similar encouragement?  

Father, help me to remember to call out to You when the waters of life are rising, and help me to offer hope to others.

For further study, read Navigating the Storms of Life.

Bible in a year: Zechariah 13–14; Revelation 21
