And what anchor points do I have when the winds of adversity come to me? So an anchor can be defined as a strong object that holds something in place, a reliable support. Anchors can bring safety to travellers on ships being rocked by storms, preventing us too, from drifting off our path or heading into dangerous, dark places.

@cobban Well said. You mention that you aim to be an anchor for your students, and I wonder how much the inverse is true. In many ways what anchors us is others; their anchors allow us to stay grounded and thus give us the opportunity to be anchors for others.
The anchors that give order and stability to our daily lives play an important role for us. Our families and friends, familiar people and places, keep us from the fears and the uncertainties of the world in which we live. However, the anchor that truly holds us is our hope in the promises of God the Father. He has never failed to keep His promises. He has never failed to provide for and care for His people. He has always been, and will always be, faithful to the covenant he has made with mankind through Jesus Christ. We can find assurance, comfort, respite from the cares of this life, and ultimately, eternal life only by holding fast to the anchor of God, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
In the course of life, we find ourselves from time to time in the midstof some difficult storms. How we handle these trying times will have muchto say about our future. There is a great difference between sailing alongwith a gentle breeze and struggling for survival as the waves beat uponour vessel and threaten a shipwreck. Oh how we need anchors that we cancount on to see us through the storms of life.
(Jer 7:23) "But this thing commanded I them, saying, Obey my voice,and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people: and walk ye in all theways that I have commanded you, that it may be well unto you."
What will see us through the storms of life? What will we hold on towhen there is no where else to turn? May I suggest that we learn from thisScriptural account. We cannot depend upon our own abilitieswe will fail.We cannot trust the majority of those around usthey are just as fallibleas we are.
