I Have Felt His Presence

Here
and faraway
Near 
and every day…
[present, now, especially today]
O magnificent Ocean
You are but a drop of water
held within His hand
[Behold His glory]
Every sparkling glimmer 
dancing upon the sand
[Look closely]
I have seen His glorious work!
But where sand meets sea
is where He anointed me…
Rendezvous
Splendid and beautiful place
He has chosen His merciful grace
as a gift imparted to me…
My Lord blesses me
here by the sea
Alone~
I seek His grace and loving-kindness
Behold
He kisses me with Sun and warmth
Caresses me with 
 gentle breeze
He embraces me with loving light
Heals me with salty air
and cleanses me with 
His foamy, 
green waters of righteousness
of whom shall I compare?
None I dare.
Praise Be To God
I see His glory in every hue of blue 
of the sky
and wonder why
He would choose me
from the land
as part of His unfolding plan.

  9. Dear DawnOh yes, the beauty of nature is just the most incredible gift of our Pappa to us! I recall a divorced friend of mine who told our Pappa God that she has no one to give her flowers on her birthday. He told her to look out from the window and all she could see was a field of flowers. He told her this is His bouquet to her!!Much love XXMia

  13. There is a psalmic quality to this, Dawn, which is really special. I love beaches and have had many special moments on them. Recently, however, I have felt very alone …
