Prov 31:14
She is like the
merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar.
Ship Ahoy!
A merchant’s ship goes from its home port to a
foreign port with the intended purposed to load cargo much needed in its home
town. We are to be like this ship. A merchant’s ship will take cargo from its
origin, drop it off in another, load up from there and unload goods from the
distant land to its place of origin. We
can go to the Lord, in His heavenly place, and take the cargo from our
world. We can bring Him our concerns,
joys, anxieties and fears and drop them off in His presence. Then, as we are
emptied, we can fill up with the goods that the Lord wants to put into us and
take all of it back to our place of origin.
Perhaps you could start your day considering yourself a merchant’s
ship. Take those cares to the Lord and
pour out your heart before Him. Take on
His wisdom, peace and counsel and bring them to all those who surround you.
