To Trust
Waves crash upon the rocks - the sight, the sound comes alive to me. Through ears and eyes electric signals come alive in my brain; a recall of past experiences enable me to recognise both sight and sound.
But what happens when there are no past messages to activate the mind, the soul?
Tidal Surge
Waves crash upon the rocks and roll upon the shore - I hear certainty amongst uncertainty - living is a doing by faith!
FAITH From Latin fidere: to trust. Assurance - “the substance” by God; without doubt. In the name of Yahweh, certainty that Things - matter, needs - unseen. Hoped for - believed and received.
“Now faith is the reality of what is hoped for, the proof of what is not seen - Hebrews 11 verse 1.
Faith: the God-given confidence, the foundation of hope, the conviction of things invisible.
Psalmist Echo
Deep calls to deep, in the roar of Your waves, Your breakers and surging tides sweep over me.
Why this turmoil within me? Hope in the LORD; I will praise him again - my Saviour and my God.
Inspiration: Ngarunui Beach, Raglan - Saturday morning, watching, hearing, waves crash upon the rocks and seeing surfers waiting, waiting. Faith, rising with the tide!
