I’ve been thinking a lot lately about my love for the ocean. I have the same love when I look out at fields that go on with no end in sight.
When we were at the beach a few weeks ago the storm clouds covered the sky. While eating and looking out over the ocean, I thought to myself, “even if the storms come it is still breathtaking! The waves will continue, and the beauty doesn’t change.”
That made me think of Jesus. No matter what storms come my way, Jesus love for me doesn’t ever end; it just keeps flowing. I might not always handle those storms with dignity and grace, but that’s ok. Because I have the love and grace of Jesus that reminds me I’m not perfect. I’m reminded to learn from that experience and get back up and keep trying.
Friend, today I encourage to remember in the midst of storms the endless love God has for you!
Your love, Lord , reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies. Your righteousness is like the highest mountains, your justice like the great deep. You, Lord , preserve both people and animals. How priceless is your unfailing love, O God! People take refuge in the shadow of your wings. Psalm 36:5-7 NIV http://bible.com/111/psa.36.5-7.NIV
How beautiful your analogy of the ocean compared with Jesus, blessed me so much! I also fell in love with the ocean years ago and miss it very much! Thank you so much!
