Air Tindi on the way home.

However; the Scriptures as a whole continuously give us the notion that our Saviour and Lord is a Rock, that we can turn to both in times of trouble but also (and I believe most importantly) in times where peace abounds (either in our own life or nation).
In Matthew 16:18 our Lord himself when talking with the Apostle Peter stated "And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." Many have misunderstood this passage to mean that Peter was the Rock, when in fact Peter, or Cephas was only the pepple or as our Lord stated in John 1:42, 'a stone'.
Clearly the Lord is the Rock, the basis of all of our belief and our faith.
I am waiting out a little spring storm here in the barren area north of Yellowknife, near to the Lupin Mine in Nunavut. I am supposed to fly out tomorrow, of course the first thing you learn traveling in the north is to be patient, the weather dictates.
Truthfully however, the Lord dictates, not just when we fly, but when we learn, grow, marry, have children and die. He knew it all before the beginning. Yet He gave us the free will to choose, to choose life or death.
What is your choice? js
Edit: adding some pictures from the trip and day of the storm. js
