February 9th
In and out.
Cresting
Crashing.
Washing.
Giving.
Destroying.
The ocean brings.
Pouring.
Soaking.
Bringing.
Destroying.
The rain causes.
Hope.
Peace.
Liberty.
Joy.
Completely and wholly new.
I have never had ocean all around me before. I mean seriously, I live in Northern Alberta. The concept of the tide and vastness of the ocean never really hit me. I knew that the tide would go in and out and that the moon was responsible for that but it never really hit me that God, someone so big and powerful was so faithful in such a small (slash big) way. I knew the ocean was behemoth (for you Jelena) but the it just never registered.
A couple of days ago we had a big rain shower that lasted at least twenty minutes. It was raining hard. I just let the rain and the presence of God soak me until there was not be left but only God and his grace.
I know it had nothing to do with the rain but in my mind it was like the rain washed away all my doubts, my insecurities until there was only Jesus and His perfect amazing plan.
God is the real deal. He reveals himself in the small and little things.
Love you all
