because not one of you will be lost only the ship
will be destroyed, last night the angel of God to whom
I belong and whom I serve stood beside me and said
Do not be afraid, and God has graciously given the lives
of all who sail with you .,
is the life of those children safe with you whom the Lord has
entrusted in your ship to sail through the raging storm of life?
· He guides: He restores my soul, and He leads me in paths of
righteousness for his name's sake (Psalm 23: 3) where are you
leading them (the children) to? Does that path lead to righteousness
or wild life? I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should
go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you, (Psalm 32: 8). I
have directed you in the way of wisdom; I have led you in upright
paths, (Proverb 4: 11). It involves directing, leading, counseling,
disciplining, instructing and teaching in the way they should go, in
the way of wisdom and upright paths with loving eye on them.
He nurtures: He tends his flock like a shepherd; he will gather the lambs in
his arms; he will carry them in his bosom, and gently lead those that are with
young.'' Isaiah 40:11. To help something or someone to grow, develop, or
succeed. The care and attention given to someone or something that is growing
or developing. You are to raise, take care, provide, look after, support, and
attend to your children. The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want.
