Day 16

I am compelled to write the following as a result of testifying today:
Note, as a chaplain I respect the right of people to follow all faiths, both organized and individually created. I believe God has given us a free will.

We are blessed to live in a free society and have the privilege to believe and think any way we wish. God has had a plan from the beginning of time, and most of what we know of God has come from the reading of the bible. The good book states that there is a way that seem right to man, but its end leads to spiritual death. We have the right to live according to rules we make concerning a spiritually constructed model. However, the Bible clearly states that Christ is the way, the truth and the life, no person comes into the presence of the father God except through Christ Jesus our lord. I pray any and all persons who have constructed their own plan, please carefully examine the claims of Jesus Christ in the bible and read Paul's letter to the Romans.
B. Tim and I know God wants us here in this place at this time to do this work. When we arrived at the ship, we were informed that our small sleeping room, a place to put our sleeping bag, sleep and stow our gear had been oversold and was not available. So, the purser, decided to give us a stateroom, for 4 with a private bath. Praise God, we got so much rest and relaxation!! The pictures taken on deck again were spectacular, we saw seals, tons of whales and eagles along with glaciers and other forested mountains and islands, almost to much of God's beauty to process.
