My husband
and I packed up the camper to leave Georgia’s Elijah Clark State Park. I put
all the inside items into secure places, while Jeff turned off the water and
retracted the stabilizer bars. Suddenly he noticed a young toddler wandering
down the busy roadway that connected the camp sites.

“If you have faith as small as a
mustard seed,
you can say to this mountain,
‘Move from here to there’ and it will
move.”
(Matthew 17:20 NIV)
We pulled our camper into Georgia’s Elijah Clark State Park for the first time. A sea of tents with a smattering of trailers filled the waterside campground. After we situated the trailer into our reserved campsite my husband plugged in the electric power. He then turned on the water. Nothing! We looked at each other and Jeff said, “Call the office.”

“I am the true vine, and my Father is
the gardener.
He cuts off every branch in me that
bears no fruit,
while every branch that does bear fruit
he prunes
so that it will be even more fruitful.”
(John 15:1-2 NIV)
It was a
hot Saturday afternoon in early September. Jeff, my husband, and John, our
son-in-law, lounged in our air-conditioned house and watched a college football
game. My daughter, Libby, and I sat on the dock and watched her children swim
and play in the lake.

“I revealed myself to those who did not
ask for me;
I was found by those who did not seek
me.”

In the mid
1800’s two ships set sail from England. They were assigned the task of
discovering the Northwest Passage from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean.
All was lost within two years. Their tragic story is depicted in the AMC drama
series “The Terror.”
