Full steam ahead

            Located in the heart of "Titanic Quarter", a short walk from Belfast City Centre, the Titanic museum stands on the site of the former Harland and Wolff shipyard where the famous ship was built.

In April 1912, the RMS Titanic set sail on her maiden voyage to New York City and tragically sank in the North Atlantic Ocean after hitting an iceberg. 

Just over 100 years on, the city of Belfast publicises the infamous vessel as "The Pride of Belfast" and promotes the tragedy as a tourist attraction. 

No doubt many of those onboard were proud to be on the maiden voyage when they set sail, never dreaming that disaster awaited them.  

The Bible warns:
"Boast not thyself of tomorrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth." (Proverbs 27:1)

It also warns that, even if it isn't tomorrow, death and a final judgement are inevitable for us all:

"And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment." (Hebrews 9:27)
