Today we went to the beach. We packed up and caught a few different buses, got to the beach, and it was so beautiful.
On the way to the beach, I had thoughts surfacing that I knew I should get out of mind right away.
Impatience for things that God has shown me.
Starting to worry about going home.
To no job, no money, and not knowing what comes next.
After playing in the water for a bit, I cozyed up in this hammock and started to read. God was showing me so many amazing things in His word, but these thoughts kept creeping back in.
And He said look around.
And I saw the waves crashing together, the horizon line, and the infinite amount of sand.
And God said:
While looking at the horizon line, so far that I couldn't see into its end.
Psalms 103:12
12 as far as the east from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us
While looking at the waves crashing together, so close I could smell the salt.
Job 38:8-11
8 “Who shut up the sea behind doors
when it burst forth from the womb,
9 when I made the clouds its garment
and wrapped it in thick darkness,
10 when I fixed limits for it
and set its doors and bars in place,
11 when I said, ‘This far you may come and no farther;
here is where your proud waves halt’?
And when looking at the sand, infinite in number.
Psalms 139:17-18
17 How precious to me are your thoughts, God!
How vast is the sum of them!
18 Were I to count them,
they would outnumber the grains of sand—
when I awake, I am still with you
And I almost had to laugh out loud. Looking around where I was at, wondering about my future. God has taken care of me through everything. He has "taken me out of Egypt" and through every single struggle, every tear and heartache. He healed it all. He isn't going to stop here.
It’s Your love that we adore
It’s like a sea without a shore
We’re lost in You, we’re lost in You
It’s Your love that we adore
It’s like a sea without a shore
We’re lost in You, we’re lost in You
It’s like a sea without a shore
We’re lost in You, we’re lost in You
It’s Your love that we adore
It’s like a sea without a shore
We’re lost in You, we’re lost in You
