Our Only HOPE

You can't turn a big ship quickly (or easily)!  America is a BIG SHIP!  This ship is losing power, damaged, and it needs to be restored.  It's drifting out to sea and headed in the wrong direction!  It must be turned around!  But how?

Only little tugboats can help turn the ship around...but it'll take a lot of them!  We, God's people, are the tugboats. 

God is the Lighthouse that is located in a safe harbor.  His light will show us the way.  The night is growing darker.  The ship's light is dimming.  We, the tugboats, must keep our lights shinning.  [Matthew 5:14-16]

"Loose lips sink ships"  was an old WWII slogan--and it applies to us today.  We must be careful what we say and what we listen to in the days ahead.  Negative speech combined with fearful thoughts will dull our senses and cause us to sink into "The Sea of Despair."

Let us have ears to hear the voice of the Lord, and eyes to see  the way He wants to lead us.  Let us not abandon the ship!  Let us give God a helping hand.

"Behold, the Lord's hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; nor His ear heavy, that it cannot hear."  [Isaiah 59:1]

Jesus Christ is our only HOPE; He is our "S-O-S"...our "Savior On the Sea. "  He will make a way where there seems to be no way--IF we will follow Him!  We must TRUST and OBEY!
