At the beach - in March !

Southampton Beach - in March

Sun, clear skies, cold temperatures - I'll take it. In a few short months, this area will be filled with beach goers, swimmers, cottagers, tourists and boaters. I was the only one on the beach...very peaceful. Just the bids flying overhead and the ice groaning as it fights to stay together. In the quiet, in the stillness, in the peacefulness I found myself thinking - how many grains of sand are under my feet? I couldn't count them if I tried. They are uncountable. Millions, no Billions, maybe Trillions of grains ...uncountable, then it hit me - that is how much love God has for us!

Psalm 139:17-18

King David wrote about this. "How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered!
 I can’t even count them; they outnumber the grains of sand! And when I wake up, you are still with me! Psalm 139:17-18.

Often as the hours, days, weeks, years pass us by, we are caught in the business of life. What we need to do, where  we need to go, who we need to please, when is my next appointment, why are things not going my way....the questions of life.... I challenge you - take a few minutes, turn off the t.v., radio, computer or anything else that can be distracting you - and spend that time with God. Just you and Him. Thank Him, magnify Him, honour Him and realize that He loves you !!!

Have a great day friends !
