Have you ever wanted to run away to a faraway exotic land to escape the stress and frustrations of life? I can assure you that even there you’d find stress and discontentment. How do I know? Because I live in a faraway exotic land.

My mission base is nestled in the foothills of the Andes Mountains where I’m a missionary to the Quechua people of Bolivia, S. A.. The views from my windows are breathtaking––snow capped mountains reaching 17,000 feet and valleys with wildflowers and bustling cities. Fairytale like––hardly! Exotic lands don’t escape the real world. Only through God can we reach a life of peaceful mountaintops and eternal purpose in our faith journey.

A few years ago, my husband suffered from a bout of shingles that left him in constant pain without relief. Where was God? In my new book, Dancing Like Bees, I examine God’s intricate creation of the honeybee and how it speaks direction into our need for living peaceful, productive lives regardless of circumstances. Through the honeybee, I learned of God’s ways and His faithfulness. I found God’s peace.

 “Teach me your way, Lord, that I may rely on your faithfulness;” (Psalm 86:11 NIV)

Bees, God, and Me

Where was God?

Didn't He see them in the middle of a foreign country with no help?

Frustrated and exhausted, Peggy walked the mission property early mornings to slip away temporarily from her caregiver duties and meet with the Savior. Her husband suffered from a bout with shingles that left him in constant pain with no relief––not even with morphine. Months turned into years. Countless doctors tried their best but with no success. 

Where was God? Didn’t He see them in the middle of a foreign country with no help? Hadn’t they given their lives to serve as missionaries and trusted Him for their health? She wept as she sat near a flowerbed filled with daisies. 

Just then, the buzz of bees drew her attention. They danced peacefully from flower to flower doing the job God created them to do, even as a storm approached. She noticed a pattern. If bees could be joyful and peaceful in all circumstances, surely she could find a way. 

Through the thirty-one devotions, this book examines what Peggy learned about God’s intricate creation of the honeybee and how it speaks direction into our need for living peaceful, productive lives while overcoming stress and achieving joy. God is faithful always, and His creation magnifies His majesty if we take time to seek Him in everyday situations––even through the honeybee.
