SUNDAY SOLACE: Hope Floats

O God, thy sea is so big, and my boat is so small.



“For forty days the roaring floods prevailed, covering the ground and lifting the boat high above the earth. As the water rose higher and higher above the ground,

the boat floated safely upon it.” ―Genesis 7:17, Living Bible

Waves crashed against the boat’s hull only inches from where Noah and his wife lay.

“What would it take for this boat to capsize?” Naamah asked.

“This boat is built for high winds and torrential rains,” Noah assured her.

Moments later, “Are you sure we’re not going to perish?”

Her husband’s words always comforted her. It was not what he said so much as the calm manner in which he said it. But how could he be so sure?

"This hope we have as an anchor of the soul,

a hope both sure and steadfast."

―Hebrews 6:19, NASB
