The Traveler - James Meikle

The Traveler is a series of meditations written by James Meikle when he was a surgeon on a British battleship. Part journal, part Devotional Meikle leads us on a journey at sea and of faith. "The highest wisdom of the traveler, then, is to be made a member of the heavenly family. Thus, when the frail family, of which he is a mortal member, must be divided, parted, and spread abroad-some in death, some in distant lands-he shall never be cast out of the celestial family, nor denied the high privileges thereof-but may cry to God, 'Abba, Father,' and shall find him not far off, when roaring oceans interrupt the father's passionate care, and bound the tender mother's melting flow of affection. Without such a celestial relationship-we are orphans, though we had the best of fathers, and the kindest of mothers."
