Don’t let your anchor hold you down forever. Eventually you’ll have to sail to a new adventure. God’s grace is strong enough to hold me steady through every difficulty. Have an anchor so that life doesn’t toss you around. – Anonymous
The anchor holds, though the ship is battered, the anchor holds, though the sails are torn, I have fallen on my knees, as I faced the raging seas, the anchor holds, in spite of the storm.
How long did you sail without knowing where you were going? Are you still going through life, day-by-day, and wondering why you are here and were you are going? Do you feel like you are just being tossed about by everything that comes along? Do you have an anchor that you can hold on to?
Most of the people I know are just drifting through life without a purpose and not knowing where they are going. They take each day, one at a time, and wonder what tomorrow will hold. They have no anchor, nothing to give them peace and nowhere to turn in the times of trouble.
I’m glad to know that I have found an anchor for my ship of life. There’s something that I can place all of my trust in, and rely upon, to keep me safe in the storms of life. That anchor is in Jesus Christ, the Rock of Ages. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. My life is anchored on the end and attached to something that will never move, never change and never let go.
You may face situations that look hopeless, but hold on, there is hope. You may feel helpless, but there is still help. You may feel powerless, but hold on, the anchor
My anchor holds. How about yours?
We have this hope as an anchor for our lives. It is safe and sure and goes through the curtain of the heavenly temple into the inner sanctuary. – Hebrews 6:19
