That's probably because we know life doesn't usually work that way. The waters might be calm for a while; but, without warning, we find ourselves caught in the whitewater. We experience the fear of those moments when we're doing all we can to avoid the rocks and keep our heads above water. Thankfully, we never navigate the rapids alone. God is always there to throw us a line and provide peace in the middle of our chaos.   Subscribe to Mountain Monday: https://bit.ly/SubtoMountainMonday
