*LIVE like a CARPATHIA to HELP people at REAL times of NEED* - There were 3 ships which were nearby when the #titanic sunk.
*Sampson*. It was 7 miles away from the Titanic, but because the crew had been hunting seals illegally & didn't want to be caught, they turned away from the Titanic.
# This ship represents those of us who are so busy in our own sin &lives that we can't recognize when someone else is in need.
*Californian*. This ship was only 14 miles away from the Titanic, but because the conditions weren't favorable & it was dark, the crew convinced themselves that nothing was happening.
# This ship represents those of us who say I can't do anything now and we wait until conditions are perfect.
*Carpathia*. This ship was actually headed in a southern direction 58 miles away from the Titanic when they heard the distress cries over the radio. The captain of this ship prayed to God for direction, turned the ship around & went full steam ahead through the ice fields. This was the ship that saved the 705 survivors of the Titanic.
Obstacles and reasons to avoid responsibility shall always be there, but those who accept it always find a place in the hearts to be remembered for the world of good they do.
I really wish that we all be *Carpathians* in life and make the world a more beautiful place to live in.
