On the Shore

cold beachThere is something peaceful and calming about walking on a beach. The sounds, the smell, the breeze, the beauty seem to restore the mind and body. When it is too cold to totally enjoy the water or no sign that the sun has much warmth to share, there remains a sense of powerful energy.  The freshness of sea air is restorative.

Sometimes, our spirit needs a similar time of rest on the God’s shore. He alone can restore our soul after the ravages of  illness, distress, or a change in our life’s direction. The ship of life is indeed too rocky, too often. God’s peace is abundant, though, when we breathe in His warmth and His strength. We are restored in the freshness of His Love.

Take a walk on shore when you need it. You will find others walking beside you.

Each of us journeys through life creating a unique story of trials and victories. Why not share parts of that story when it might encourage others on their journey? The waves of life too often rock our boat but we find a way to keep rowing. We learn to hold on to each other when the waves crash, but, more importantly, we need to remember who else is in the boat - Jesus, our Captain and our Anchor!
