"I Will Sail My Vessel"

As I was fixing breakfast this morning, I so clearly heard "I will sail my vessel...." being sung within my spirit. So much so that I flipped off the burner -- set breakfast aside -- and Googled it. (My musically illiterate self is SO thankful for Google. :o)) Needless to say, my kitchen was filled with music minutes later!

What beautiful lyrics! And the beautiful truth is that with Jesus (The Living Water AND my Captain), the river never runs dry and I'm sure to reach my destination!

"Choose to chance the rapids." "Dare to dance the tide." Or my favorite, " Like a bird upon the wind!" Whatever lyrics speak to you, picture it in your spirit... let the reality of "doing" sink deep... and then ride the wave of opportunity when it comes!

Those that are faithful with the small....

If you have a heart to live -- really live -- and you are walking according to God's principles, God will bring the opportunity. But when it comes, YOU have to decide to hit the water.... or in my case, hit the sky! ;o)

Deborah




You know a dream is like a river
Ever changin' as it flows
And a dreamer's just a vessel
That must follow where it goes
Trying to learn from what's behind you
And never knowing what's in store
Makes each day a constant battle
Just to stay between the shores...and

I will sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry
Like a bird upon the wind
These waters are my sky
I'll never reach my destination
If I never try
So I will sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry

Too many times we stand aside
And let the waters slip away
'Til what we put off 'til tomorrow
Has now become today
So don't you sit upon the shoreline
And say you're satisfied
Choose to chance the rapids
And dare to dance the tide...yes

I will sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry
Like a bird upon the wind
These waters are my sky
I'll never reach my destination
If I never try
So I will sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry

There's bound to be rough waters
And I know I'll take some falls
But with the good Lord as my Captain
I can make it through them all...yes


I will sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry
Like a bird upon the wind
These waters are my sky
I'll never reach my destination
If I never try
So I will sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry

Yes, I will sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry
'Til the river runs dry
