In giving us this season of ‘uncharted’ God gave us an important picture, one that remains even more relevant for us today. It was a picture of a sailing ship or a sailing vessel, one that has set off from safe harbour and headed out into the vast ocean in search of new lands and new discoveries. We are like this ship, sailing out into places where we no longer have a map or chart to help us, one where we must trust our captain to guide us but excited for what we are about to discover.
