Saint Brendan's Prayer

"Oh God, this sea is very big and my boat is very small!"

St Brendan the Navigator, an Irish saint who reputedly crossed the Atlantic in a small boat made of cowhide.

St. Brendan, you echo my feelings today!
I wonder how long it took in that little boat? Talking about an opportunity to see how puny you are in the context of the world!
