The ship and it’s journey – An analogy of Salvation and it’s completion

When the ship is ready to sail (Only God can make a persons heart ready to receive Christ as Lord and give faith for real Salvation to occur – not to be confused with modern day religious activity) – the manager of all things (God) will set it loose (day to day life) and complete the journey in its entirety. (Death and all its detail for me – whether I think it is fair or not is not God concern) He will see it through to its safety.(My heavenly inheritance) (God always protects His children – but does in faithfulness afflict them for the purpose of Growth in christlikeness – But never leaves them ultimately in the affliction) It has already been provided all it needs to make the entire journey. (We have everything we need for life and godliness – right now). There will be nothing lacking in the process whatsoever. And it will finish the trip that it started – Guaranteed by the one who built the ship – the master builder – God Himself. (I will rejoice in the completion of my trip here on earth and stand in awe of my heavenly fathers love and kind intention of His will shown toward me – for all eternity – in the light of His glorious loving presence)

Added thoughts

My situations and problems will be summed up according to His perfect will and authority over me. Why be anxious about anything – if this is true. I am to only trust Him during the storms at sea and there are many – and will continue to be many. I am to receive – as He instructed the disciples – when He was asleep in the bottom of the boat on the Sea of Galilee – to not fear. I am to exercise my Faith (which is given to me) for He tests the heart of men to see whether or not they will trust Him. (The purpose is for me to know it – not if He is somehow wondering or doesn’t know.) I am to repent of my lack of trust when He makes me to see that I have not trusted Him as I should have.To God be the glory for this ship that He built (me) – and made to sail (the details of my life) – and provides for all it will ever need. Thank you Lord!
