The anoxic nature of the water in large portions of the Black Sea has allowed for the remarkable preservation of ships. Just a year or so ago the discovery of a bunch of wrecked ships dating from Byzantine to Renaissance times was announced at a site near the coastline. The discoverers were more than a little surprised to find that on several of them the riggings were still intact since rope rots away in salt water in about a century.

Lee"What I pray of you is, to keep your eye upon Him, for that is everything. Do you say, 'How am I to keep my eye on Him?' I reply, keep your eye off everything else, and you will soon see Him. All depends on the eye of faith being kept on Him. How simple it is!" (J.B. Stoney)
