Peace In The Waiting Wind

A sailboat floats peacefully near the shore, its sail still raised—as if ready to move—but held steady by its anchor. The waves ripple softly beneath it, gentle yet alive, echoing the rhythm of a soul that has not yet found all the answers, but has chosen to remain still. Though the daylight shines and the world continues on, the boat lingers in quiet trust, waiting—not for the wind, but for the whisper. This image reflects the sacred tension of grief: a heart still carrying the readiness to hope, to move, yet choosing to anchor itself in the presence of God. Even as the current flows and life stirs around it, the soul listens. And in that stillness, the Lord draws near.
“The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.”
—Exodus 14:14
