RUACH HEROES:
Chaos to Beauty
In 450 B.C., Captain Hupo launches the Sapphire Galley to deliver food to starving villagers while battling sea creatures, pirates, and the elements. Hupo mentors rowers to message Ruach, Breath of God, for help thru the Golden Bowl stored in the bow of the ship. Prayers are intercepted and direction is given via the Great Mirror in logograms flashing across the sky.
Seeking to reduce injustice on land and sea, Hupo recruits city-state leaders to create an order free from chaos or tyranny. The crew battles their own dragons and sing jingles to avoid abandoning ship. Regional leaders recognize virtues in the apprentice rowers and are drawn to the power of their mysterious Ruach, Breath of God.
Lost in an Acropolis invasion, the Golden Bowl is inherited centuries later by a Renaissance Regatta crew sent on a peace mission. An avalanche, supernova, shipwreck, and volcanic island rescue disrupt their efforts at unity and order. The Incarnate One releases the The Law of Love, demanding evacuees and rowers die to greed, envy, and revenge in their struggle to survive. Rogue starlings nitpick minds, however, sowing division to sabotage acceptance of a converted former enemy, Sal Prowd, as the new doge of Venice.
The crews finally drink instead of thirst for living water as they enter the Crystal Sea. Freedom and healing are found as chaos turns to beauty, and a concerto celebrates the Bella Brigata, a beautiful brigade of friends. Ahoy Mates!

Joyful Women in a Sorrowful World:
Meditations in Lectio Divina
JOY is a condition in the soul despite the circumstances.
JOY is not related to age, mood, temperament, income, culture, or health.
JOY is needed in our world of uncertainty to see beyond present crises to the glory awaiting us.
JOY is found in the Pearl of great value, our Beloved.
We can then find joy in the journey despite our circumstances. We can have HIS JOY and it will be FULL!
John 15:11
