A light in the ocean…

Oceans deep, dark and vast, ever treading water and never feeling solid ground. Water is rushing by, as waves raise high and crash down over us. Bobbing up and down for air as the tides spiral us deep down into darkness. The sea salt in our open wounds painfully cleanse our souls. To open eyes come blurry vision, as tears cloud our sight. Just as we faintly see a buoy to grab hold of, memories flood, pulling us into deeper waters. Exhausted, fighting waves, never knowing when they will appear, we begin to sink. Suddenly, signs of bright light and sounds of calm waters, lift us back to the surface. We float again until another moment of storms appear, all the while praying for peace.

Looking up with love,

He stilled the storm to a whisper; the waves of the sea were hushed.  Psalm 107:29
