Life, the Sea and God

Have you ever considered that life is like the sea? I love the ocean. We can learn a lot about life from the ocean. It can be beautiful. We can see things crystal clear like the waters in the Carribean. We may experience vast storms like those of the North Atlantic- fearce and cold. We have precious treasures in our lives- family- like would be found along the shore of the beach. There are even mountains in our lives like the ones on the coast of California. Our lives can be as beautiful as the coral reefs of the Great Barrier Reef. Our lives are complex like the ocean. There are so many life forms under the water. There are so many explorations to take. There are so many wild and wonderful events to happen. We even sometimes come across bottom feeders. Then we quickly swim away! We even see miracles that were performed in the water. Christ walked on it! He even calmed the sea just by speaking. God did a miracle when the sea was parted for people to walk across. Imagine with me for only a minute, that if the Lord did all of that, what can He do in your life? The sea is huge, but HE is bigger! HE is more beautiful! So, no matter how much I love the ocean, I just have to tell you that my love for HIM is so much more magnified! I have seen him calm storms in my life and work miracles that I never thought possible. We need to trust in HIM. He can turn our lives into something more beautiful than we would ever imagine!
