Book excerpt: A Word for the Weary is a book of short meditations written for those who are about to embark on this wonderful yet challenging experience called recovery and to those who are currently working hard everyday to defeat this demon, which I choose to call addiction, once and for all. There is a word for the weary. There is some good news for those who are tired of being tired. My friend, you don't have to fight this opponent (addiction) all by yourself. You have a friend in Jesus and he knows all about your hurts, your pains, your setbacks, and your struggles. The bible says in Hebrews 4:15-16, "For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need."

One night Nassos, Captain and owner of a Greek karave (similar in structure to a dromon.) On one trip they were sailing to Sicily from Greece and once the sun had set the breeze dropped and there was not much for the crew to do except wait for the breeze to return. Bored, Nassos fetched his old fiddle and began to play. All too soon he saw a beautiful maiden with long blonde hair drifting alongside the ship. He carried on playing and more appeared, some coming onboard to listen. They were amazing creatures, half human, half fish. The like he had never seen before in all his years of sailing. All too quickly his men captured one maiden and began drawing lots for her. Begging them to let her go, but the men refused and bound her. Nassos stopped playing to tell the men to set her free. But the other maidens fled his ship diving beneath the waves, emitting soul-piercing screams before they disappeared. Then it happened????? What happened you ask? Well, mermaids are really nothing like Disney?s Little Mermaid. Despite their beauty and kindness, they also have a dark and malevolent aspect to their nature as well.
