At the Middle of the Sea

It was my first time to be in cruising ship bound to Cagayan de Oro City for a youth conference. There at the ship deck, I had the chance for sight seeing. Enjoying seeing those islands we passed by, some aquamarine life floating on water and some species of fish swimming in the deep blue sea. It was unforgettable experience but the most memorable one when darkness covered the sea with its sands of stars shining brightly over us but no moon was sighted. We are at the middle of the sea with no ships passing by. The wind blows gently in its coldness. Beyond the horizon were lighthouses with their flickering lights from the distance serving as night compass to those navigating on the sea.

Though at first I was scared to get aboard in a ship for the possibility that it will sink but fear faded suddenly when all the magnificent scene that evening shown before my very eyes. It was truly a majestic show that God for us that night. That was God's sign for me to assure that there's nothing to fear or worry about because He is with us in the midst of navigation. It's a splendid evening indeed!
