The "Set of Your Sail"

What's your attitude as you approach scripture?
What's your attitude toward obeying God - walking in the light?
The storms of life will somethimes tempt us to not trust the Lord.
It all has to do with the "set of our sail" - our attitude.
It's been said that the smallest of boats is safe in the roughest of seas just as long as none of that rough sea gets inside that small boat. Having a godly attitude does not mean you will never face problems or storms.

One ship sails east
Another ship sails west
No matter which way the wind blows
Tis the set of the sail and not the gale
That determines the way that ship goes.

And as the storms rage on and
we journey through life,
it will be the "set of our hearts"
that determine where we will go
not the storms or strife.

The whole point here is:
Your attitude is the "set of your sail"!
