Things God Taught Me at the Ocean

1. God has boundries that even the oceans must obey. When the ocean leaves its boundries death and destruction follow.
2. Gifts from God are like shells washed up on the beach. If you don't pick them up and use them then they can be taken back out.
3. The most beautiful shells aren't always the perfect ones.
4. Our words and actions carve who we are in others minds like waves against the beach. With each word like each wave we can begin to change how others percieve us
5. There's stuff out there that can sting and eat you. Use wisdom and keep your eyes open
6. Out deep is great peace but great danger...this is where the truest meaning of grace and mercy lives. When you're out deep there's no one else but you, God and the ocean
7. As long as you can see the shore you'll always have a decision to make
8. Like some people, the ocean hides nothing above, only below
9. The ocean illustrates life. We can only go where God's boundries allow and the winds of heaven blow us. Faith is the current that takes us.
More to come...
