With an apology to Tony Evans (a black pastor in the Dallas/Fort Worth area) I Quote:

“We came over in different ships, but now we are all in the same boat”

He is right! His ancestors came over in Slavers - mine came over in "coffin ships" after An Gorta Mor - but we're all in the same boat now, indeed!



Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

So, so true, however, some have not yet realized that fact!

“We came over in different ships, but now we are all in the same boat”.

Fabulous quote...too bad so many refuse to see the need for that boat today.

A Blessed Lord's Day to you and yours.
