So many persons who think divorce a

The Battleship and the Lighthouse

Author Unknown

In the darkest part of the night, a ship's captain cautiously piloted his warship through the fog-shrouded waters. With straining eyes he scanned the hazy darkness, searching for dangers lurking just out of sight. His worst fears were realized when he saw a bright light straight ahead. It appeared to be a vessel on a collision course with his ship. To avert disaster, he quickly radioed the oncoming vessel.  ``This is Captain Jeremiah Smith,'' his voice crackled over the radio.  ``Please alter your course ten degrees south! Over.''

To the captain's amazement, the foggy image did not move. Instead, he heard back on the radio, ``Captain Smith, this is Private Thomas Johnson. Please alter your course ten degrees north! Over.''

Appalled at the audacity of the message, the captain shouted back over the radio, ``Private Johnson, this is Captain Smith, and I order you to immediately alter your course ten degrees south! Over.''

A second time the oncoming light did not budge. ``With all due respect, Captain Smith,'' came the private's voice again, ``I order you to alter your course immediately ten degrees north! Over.''

Angered and frustrated that this impudent sailor would endanger the lives of his men and crew, the captain growled back over the radio.  ``Private Johnson, I can have you court-martialled for this! For the last time, I command you on the authority of the United States government to alter your course ten degrees to the south! I am a battleship!''

The private's final transmission was chilling--''Captain Smith, sir.  Once again with all due respect, I command you to alter your course ten degrees to the north! I am a lighthouse!''

Many today have little respect for authority. Some operate as if rules can be changed to fit their personal needs and desires. Commercials egg us on: ``Have it your way.'' In reality, we can't always have it our way. We have to conform our lives to a higher truth, a higher authority. Truth is not going to change to accommodate us. We are the ones who must change to conform our lives to what is true.
