There is a swimming pool in Dundee with a donut shaped whirlpool called the rapids. We used to take the school swim club there and the children loved the sense of being sucked into the swirling waters and carried at speed round and round. I am not a strong swimmer but I did enjoy that too. Maybe because although it felt a bit scary, there was an underlying knowledge that basically it was safe.
That is the blessing of faith in a good and loving God. That although life can seem out of control as we are swept along in various currents, even sometimes fearing we might go under, that underneath we know are God's everlasting arms, keeping us eternally safe.
I am being swept along in various circumstances right now, feeling out of control but just trusting in the love of my Saviour.
So, so grateful.
