The Purpose of an Anchor

An anchor is used to secure a vessel to the ground. The anchor, once secured to the ground, keeps the vessel from not only drifting in the wrong direction, but it keeps it from taking an unwanted course towards shallow rocks. Anchors are attached to long, steel chains that keep it connected to its vessel. Anchors provide stability and security.

“Because God wanted to make the unchanging nature of his purpose very clear to the heirs of what was Promised, he confirmed it with an oath. God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the HOPE set before us may be greatly encouraged. We have this HOPE as an ANCHOR for the soul, firm and secure.”

Hebrews 6: 17-19
