It was on April 10, 1912 that the unsinkable ocean liner, the Titanic cruised out of the port of Southampton, England. A mere five days later, the ship struck an iceberg ... and the unsinkable ship did the unthinkable - it sunk. In doing so, over 1500 people lost their lives in the dark, frigid waters of the North Atlantic.
I am sure you will be hearing a lot about the Titanic in the coming days as the one hundredth anniversary of its tragic voyage is now upon us. As you do, allow it to remind you that for those of us who are following Jesus, we are on a truly "unsinkable ship" as we sail the waters (often stormy) of this present earthly life. With Jesus Christ at the helm of both this world and our own individual lives, we can be assured that HIS plan will be brought to its pre-planned conclusion. And just what is this "pre-planned conclusion?" If you want to know, take a moment and read the following passages: 1 Corinthians 15:24-28; Revelation 19:11-21; Revelation 20:1-15; Revelation 21:1-27; Revelation 22:1- 21).
Thanks be to God for the encouragement that comes in knowing how the book we call "Life" ends! I hope you are prepared! (and if you need some help in preparing, check out these two ways to live.
