The Tiny Sail Boat


Our souls are like tiny sail-boats journeying out across a great ocean. Our goal is the shores of heaven. The wind that carries us there is the breath of God, the Holy Spirit. If we look to God and capture the Spirit in our sails we shall journey safely across the stormy seas of life. But if we do not stay closely united to God we will lose the Spirit in our sails and we shall be turned back by the tide of the world. We cannot lay anchor amid the stormy seas; we have to embrace the spirit of God and fix our eyes upon the distant shores if we do not wish to be lost to the deep. There is many a pirate ship scuttled at the bottom of the ocean, let us not join them but sail on to the shores of paradise.

There we shall find a safe harbor to rest in; we shall also find that our beloved Saviour has paid our docking fees. When we stand content upon the golden shores and look back upon our great voyage, we shall see that it was not our great sailing ability that brought us safely to our destination, but the navigational skills of our Saviour and the ever flowing tide of God's grace that carried us safely home to paradise.

The Christian Life


The Christian life should be a continual longing for God, an unending desire for union. It should be a progressive search for wisdom and truth, a daily striving for the knowledge of God’s Holy Will. It should be a humble life of obedience, a vocation of service, a joyful sacrifice, a journey of implicit faith, of filial love and undiminishing hope.
