Remotes are full of technology, but my remote is the same as yours. If we have God, we can pray, and He will answer. If our boat sinks, what do we do for comfort? Go down with it or jump out into the water?

I thought this was an interesting perspective of your faith right up to "the remote is faith", then it became brilliant.

A very well written piece, Beth, and it tells us everything we need to know about your beliefs in a way anyone can understand.

Good luck in the contest.

What a great metaphorical piece! I like that you give us the life picture as the metaphor of a boat on the sea, and the control is the faith we have in God Who directs us all through life to Him. Best wishes in the contest!

A lovely analogy. The metaphor of the sea being life is always a great one and I like the idea of the remote being faith, guiding us towards our destiny. I don't ever (want) to be without my remote. Good luck, Beth! Debbie

Thank you for sharing this Flash Fiction contest entry with us. Yes, by the power of prayer we have that remote to guide us through this journey of live. I can't imagine attempting it by myself. Good luck with the contest.

To navigate alone in this world or sea is a dangerous situation. Without the following presence of our Savior, there's no hope. What a wonderfully written story.
Good luck in the contest! Have a great day, and God bless.
