When freezing in my sailboat each morning I listen to a Podcast called Pray-As-You-Go. Today it talked about how God gave up heaven to come to earth in a human body to help and spread Good News. It made me think about the purpose of making a living form a sailboat, is it just to satisfy my own wants, or to help others?
It made me think if I should go after this dream just because I can. Therefore, I took one of those on-line Spiritual Gifts assessments and it said I am gifted with Exhortation, Serving, and Mercy. I guess that's why I feel so good when people see hope of their future after making or updating their resumes. I hear people saying "I did not realize I had so many great skill to get into the jobs I want".
I think I could still use these Spiritual Gifts making resumes for people from my sailboat. Actually, virtual career counselling might be able to help those in remote locations or challenged with getting out.
I think having your own sail boat must be wonderful. Wouldn't it be great to just sail around the world, stopping wherever you pleased? Maybe you have already done that.
ReplyDeleteNo, haven't done that yet. But, I was inspired by a couple who docked at the marina last year from Russia. They sail around the world (in what looks like a mini Christopher Columbus boat), stopping at different towns, selling their art work to buy food and supplies. That's cool!!
