Psalm 42:7 “Roaring deep calls to roaring deep, at the thunder of your water spouts; all Your breakers and Your rolling waves have gone over me.”
God spoke to my spirit, “I will cover you until there are only days.” I know from His word what that means: after my Savior returns in the new heaven and new earth there will only be daylight-no darkness. Oh how God loves me, He is going to cover me until then. I am moved to tears as I walk along the beach.
He told me to slow down today and look closely at every single beach bird and watch them fly, soar, feed, play and scuttle about. His creative power manifested in all living creatures for us to enjoy.
Write He whispered, write from deep under where words are not seen, write of a yearning for Me and My love and protection and peace.
As I leisurely walked He showed me colors in the murky shallow water I had never seen before, vibrant pinks, glistening aquas, purples and blues. Bubbles appeared as pearls floating atop the sand and shimmering opalescent edges of waves I’d never noticed until today. God is in all the beauty I see. Ordinary became extraordinary.
I slowed to a snaillike crawl, it felt as if time stood still. All else faded around me as I concentrated only on His beautiful ocean and beach and wildlife. I admit I was mesmerized, in a dream like state, just me and God staring at His creation. Basking only in the presence of the living God. worshiping as He whispered, “I cover you with my wings.” Deep inside in the place where only God dwells I felt warmth and joy and rest…an all is well with the world kinda feeling.
“The call of God is like the call of the sea, no one hears it except the person who has the nature of the sea in him.” Oswald Chambers
I felt God today, He lifted the veil for only a moment and shattered my illusion of beauty and revealed glory to me. God is reminding me I am here, I am near in every bird, flower, tree, each sunrise and sunset, it is I the great I am that you see, hear and feel. Kneel and pray for I am with you.
“The ocean represents Me, endlessly glorious and continually present with you..” Jesus Today (page 242) Lord, thank you for your ocean and all the beauty in and around it and for calling me today to hear it.
