What do you think this poem is about?

He is in My Boat

Though raging waves of pain come crashing
Though howling winds of doubt and scorn

Plague and rock my boat of living
My sails of Hope lay tattered and torn

Faith my compass is secure
Rain and storms I will not loathe

He gives me the strength to endure
The Lord, my God is in my Boat.

    very deep and creative, tells so much about you, I do think faith in God is our salvation, I loved your metaphors, an outstanding usage of descriptive language, well done
