Amazing! Here from where we stand - we could see it…

​

A boat in the distance, riding high on the waves during the dawn of the storm. The winds of life blowing steady – blowing violently without warn.

 

Suddenly it turned dire, when the mast began to fold – it’s rig almost breaking under pressure, it seemed the boat had lost control.

​

Imagine what was taking place on that vessel at the time… fear, panic, chaos, despair and dread of loss, as the waves began to climb.

​

Amidst the stormy sea, we have seen it so many times before - the dismantling that perhaps could have been avoided…

‘if’, ‘when’, ‘why’, and, ‘or’ -

​

But nonetheless, whatever the error that caused the parts to slip – that boat was there – out there in turbulent waters, sailing amongst the waves amiss.

 

And then before we knew it, another great gust of wind rushed in - 74 miles or more an hour – taking the boat in a spiral spin.

​

But we too were in that storm with that vessel… ‘The R.I.G.’ amongst the violent waves – a ship with ‘mind of rescue’ on the worst of stormy days. 

​

Rigged and equipped with throttle, navigation, and much more -

So honored and so determined to get that boat to shore.
