“we had sailed slowly many days” [Acts 27:7]
February 3
“we had sailed slowly many days”. Though the leisurely days of sail are long since past for the necessary journeys of life, we do find ourselves in a backwater sometimes and with no power to get out of it quickly.
Sickness, sorrow, working for someone else are some of the situations beyond our control. Missed opportunities, a misunderstanding or being wrongly informed can find us waiting for something that never comes. Whether it is one or many days when sailing is very slow, remember the words of Jesus – “In your patience possess ye your souls”. Slowly gets there in the end – with a relieved traveller too.
