"The sea looked like blue velvet; a slight swell caused gentle waves to softly wash an outcrop of rocks and then dissolved into the peaceful water below.
How refreshing to ponder on such a scene, when life itself creates such turmoil and you find yourself wound up like a spring - to see such a scene of peace and tranquility reminds us that God Himself is our peace. He says "Come unto me all you who labour and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn of me for my yoke is easy and my burden is light"."
I wrote this while on my morning commute to Wellington by train, shortly before I found out my job was to be disestablished. How like the Lord to provide comfort and reassurance that He is in control.
After a particularly difficult disestablishment, I once again have a new position in a similar department.
He surely is Jehovah Jireh, our Provider!
