For the Son of Man came to seek and save those who are lost.”

Many a ship has sailed from port to port
with no interference from Me,
because Strong Will has been at the wheel.

go merrily on their ways,
untouched by the power of My hand.
But you have put your life into My keeping,
and because you are
depending on Me for guidance and direction,
I shall give it.
Move on steadily,
and know that the waters that carry you
are the waters of My love and My kindness,
and I will keep you on the right course.
