Prayer that moves you forward

It wasn’t very windy, so we weren’t sure the conditions would be great for sailing. As we readied the boat, I noticed that everyone else on the water that day had chosen a rowboat. With great effort, some had rowed out into the middle of the pond, but others were making less progress—moving in circles more than a straight line. 

We hoisted the sails and shoved off from the dock and then—much to our surprise—caught a gust of wind and were darting across the water. I was amazed by the effortlessness of our motion: All we had to do was orient ourselves toward the breeze and the boat would scoot along with almost no help from us.
