Missing the Point
A ship captain will do well to avert disaster against the rocks in rough seas . However , in spiritual matters , the tower represents God and his Kingdom standing firmly on the foundation of the solid rock mass . His righteous light shines as a powerful beacon to all those who willfully turn their eyes to find it . The ship is an individual or even many individuals on a voyage to find what they seek whether they know what that is or not . You yourself are on this vessel . The sea is the world and it's influence , constantly pitching the ship and making it unstable to the very point of calamity and loss . Simultaneously the sea relentlessly crashes against the tower , trying to crush and drown out the power of the Good light above ............ but it will NEVER reach that high . Turn your eyes toward the Light ! Psalms 83:18
