I’m not what you would call a frequent flyer but I have flown on many occasions. Only once did I experience severe turbulence. I braced myself as the jet flew erratically in the wild blue yonder. Wouldn’t you know it? It had to occur when I was pregnant for our second child.

I was a victim of nausea and unable to suppress it. I had no alternative than to use the conveniently stored airline barf bag. Lifting it from the magazine holder, I puked.

What will I do if God allows turbulent times?

Is he telling me to brace myself?
