Burn the Ships

Today I have been so amazed at how God has worked out everything so perfect for us. We could not have orchestrated this in a million years. I'm talking about the move to Grace Fellowship and the new job at Donaho. I started thinking today about the first steps we took in this process. This is the song that came to mind.....

Burn the Ships

by Steven Curtis Chapman

In the spring of 1519, a Spanish fleet set sail

Cortez told his sailors this mission must not fail

On the eastern shore of Mexico they landed with great dreams,

But the hardships of the new world make them restless and weak.

Quietly they whispered, "Let's sail back to the life we knew"

But the one who led them there was saying

CHORUS

Burn the ships, we're here to stay.

There's no way we could go back

Now that we've come this far by faith

Burn the ships, we've passed the point of no return

Our life is here

So let the ships burn

In the spring of new beginnings a searching heart set sail

Looking for a new life and a love that would not fail

On the shores of grace and mercy we landed with great joy

But an enemy was waiting to steal, kill, and destroy

Quietly he whispers, "Go back to the life you know"

But the one who led us here is saying

BRIDGE

Nobody said it would be easy

But the one who brought us here

Is never gonna leave us alone
