ALL YOUR WAVES

Deep calls unto deep at the noise of Your waterfalls; all Your waves and billows have gone over me. The Lord will command His lovingkindness in the daytime, and in the night His song shall be with me – a prayer to the God of my life. - Psalm 42:7, 8

We thank You, Lord, in the midst of the waves of life.

Once we were subject to their crashing with every flux and turbulent movement the sea brought. We felt the panic of the rip tides, the painful abrasions of being tossed ruthlessly, helplessly against sand and stone. At times, we became sick and miserable from swallowing great mouthfuls of brine. But that was before we knew You...

Now in You, we can learn to ride the waves, even walk on water if you call us to! Instead of being totally overwhelmed, we learn to bring our lives into subjection under Your authority. We can come forth as gold from circumstances meant for destruction. Yes, we are pearls bought at a great price, formed through the sands of tribulation - when we allow our times, tides, and seasons to be found in You.
