Let;s go sailing!
The comment is.
I find the great thing in this world Is not so much where we stand, as to the direction we are moving.. To reach the Port of Heaven, we must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it but we must sail, and not drift, nor lie at anchor.
OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES
I researched and found a lot of information about this author/statesman, judge, politician. poet and Harvard Don but I did not find a legacy of Christian writing. I pray he indeed sailed at his life’s end into Heaven’s Port but he never wrote about it with any certainty.
I today look at the image of the small rowboat and this is my personal statement.
As the airwaves are swamped today with the problems and discord in this broken 2023 world I walk towards the little boat.
I find the greatest thing is not where we stand but on Whom we are standing THE WORD and the direction we are going is to FOLLOW THE SAVIOUR.
If He is in the boat with me I KNOW Heaven is my destination.
I am trusting that the Wind of the HOLY Spirit will blow me ever forwards and onwards but even when the storms and rolling sea are battering my craft I know I have an ANCHOR that will HOLD,
Precious Saviour every day we need You.
TODAY I FIX MY EYES UPON YOU AND PRAY THAT ALL READING MAY DO LIKEWISE AND this ordinary Wednesday will bring JOY and abundant HOPE.
AMen!!
