We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, where our forerunner, Jesus, has entered on our behalf. He has become a high priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek.
Hebrews 6:19?-?20 NIV
In darkness once drifting away
No control of the direction of the sail
Ropes had all came untied
To and fro tossed back and forth
Never reading the map before leaving
Believed in my own guidance
You have heard men hate asking for directions
Would rather drive in circles
Not the first time I would
Have to learn the hard way
But in this moment when seeking guidance
In knowing there was something I was missing
All , became calm with a new vision
An anchor grabbed my soul in an instant
Having Jesus to pull up the curtain
From then on excited to be a crew member
Who else could control the wind
And bring the mind to ease in Stillwater.
Many others try to convince
There boat is faster
Some say there's holds more people
Some might say this one is unsinkable
We have the best metals one could buy
In response, saying this one was made
Without the hands of man
Are things to parrish
When one has found the true one
Stay in it for this one is heading home.
All glory to Jesus in being
The anchor unto a soul to cling to
Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming.
Ephesians 4:14 NIV
