Secure Vessel

I’ve always wanted to name a boat.

If I ever really had the opportunity, what would I choose? Name it after a person I love, a favorite book or movie, or a clever, ironic phrase to make people smile?

Recently, I discarded all those notions and decided I’d name my boat “His Will.”

Why?

Because, then, no matter if the boat is big or small, grand or simple, even new or old, I would know beyond a shadow of a doubt that boat won’t sink.

No matter how difficult or easy that boat is to operate, I can believe I won’t be stranded on high or stagnant seas.

No matter how long it takes to get to the ‘golden shore’ as it were, I can trust that my boat will indeed make it there safely.

“His Will’ is the only vessel I want to be on. Getting on board is the best move any of us will ever take.

Blessings, my Dry Ground friends.
