Not a good idea

Yesterday, reports came in of a man that had died down by Kafulafuta River. The rains are very heavy this year and many of the rivers are quite bloated and overflowing. The Kafulafuta has a steel boat that goes back and forth but it does take a long time to make the trip. From what I was told, the man got tired of waiting and decided to swim the river - about half way across, the current became very strong and pulled this man under.

This has a spiritual picture , as well. Many, too many, think they can handle what lies in front of them, and impatiently plunge in headlong only to discover too late they are over matched. Let it be a lesson I will learn. While I may never be so foolish as to dive into the Kafulafuta, there are plenty of other things I may unwisely jump into. "Be still and know that I am God!"

Thanks for the post!

We miss you terribly, and pray for your safety and discernment in all things!
