The Shipwreck

Now when it was day, they did not recognize the land, but they noticed a bay with a beach, on which they planned if possible to run the ship ashore. So they cast off the anchors and left them in the sea, at the same time loosening the ropes that tied the rudders. Then hoisting the foresail to the wind they made for the beach, but striking a reef, they ran the vessel around, the low stuck and remained immovable, and the stern was being broken up by the surf.
Acts 27:39-41

This passage that I read today made me think of how sometimes life can feel like a shipwreck. We can try to plan our own course and think it is going to go the way we planned and then everything falls apart. We get stuck and things start to beat against us and we start to break up. Instead if we let God guide our course and we let Him direct us on our journey through life we can know for sure He will not let us drown and be washed away. He is the anchor we need to hold onto and we need to cast off anything and everything else that is holding us back from letting Him take control of our life.
I just felt I need to share this for some reason (only God knows).

'Pose' or should I say 'Paws'..

I finally got some more pictures of our dog Joschi!
I thought they looked cool in black and white.



He is really good at side poses I guess.

This one is so cute! I think he was getting bored.

When I got too close he wanted to stick his nose right

up in the camera.

I wonder what he was thinking...

Are we done yet?

I think he was trying to show me he is

getting tired of pictures.

Shadows

"Every good and true thing is given to us from heaven, coming
from the Father of Lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change."
James 1:17
