Shipwrecked!Captain Biltmore, an experienced seaman, decided to set sail on a solo journey from Hawaii to the Marshall Islands.\xa0It was a very long and somewhat dangerous journey.\xa0The Captain departed in late summer for what he anticipated would be a two-week journey.\xa0His sailboat was well stocked, and with over 20 years of maritime experience, and five years as a captain, he yearned for the challenge.\xa0It was smooth sailing during the first few days, but then he received word that the weather may turn violent within two days.\xa0He checked his compass and maps and decided that he could make it to a set of little known islands about three days to his south.\xa0It was slightly off course, and more into the direction of the coming storm, but it was his only alternative.\xa0Captain Biltmore battled high waves and rough seas, but forge onward to his destination.\xa0After two days, his sail was ripped to pieces, and he started throwing cargo overboard to lighten the load.\xa0On day three, as he was approaching an uninhabited island, which was still about 40 knots away, his sailboat broke into pieces.\xa0Clinging to a large plank of wood which he used as a raft, he grabbed another board to be his paddle.\xa0He rowed and rowed for about a day, and finally reached the shore of this small island in complete darkness.\xa0Captain Biltmore was so exhausted that he crawled about 100 yards from the coast and collapsed in a deep sleep.\xa0When Captain finally woke the next morning, he could not believe what he saw. The sand is dark red. He mumbled, \u201cI can\u2019t believe it.\u201d\xa0He then looked up into the sky, which was also dark red.\xa0Captain Biltmore continued to walk around a bit and sees that dark red grass, dark red birds, and dark red fruit on the dark red trees. He\u2019s shocked when he finds that his skin is starting to turn dark red, too.


Captain Biltmore screamed at the top of his lungs, \u201cOh no!! I\u2019ve been marooned!!\u201d


I hope that brought a smile to your face today.\xa0If it did pass your smile onto some else, we all could use a kind smile each day.\xa0Our Thursday thought is, Someone asked me if you were stranded on a desert island, what book would I bring... \u2018How to Build a Boat.\u2019Here is our verse for today:


Hebrews 13:5 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Hebrews+13%3A5&version=NLT)


Your lifestyle must be free from the love of money, being content with what you have. For he himself has said, \u201cI will never desert you, and I will never abandon you.\u201d
