feather in an ocean



I just wanted to reflect a little bit on this picture I took about a few months ago and share what God spoke to me through this picture.

As people we are like a feather, something so fragile and weightless. Especially since we live in this world, which is like the ocean. When I look at this picture, I am reminded of how small we are, just like the feather floating in the water. And sometimes in out lives we can't control the direction we want to go in. But instead we are tossed in the waves back and forth, over and over again. But one thing is for sure, we need to look ahead at our future and our outcome and trust that God will bring us to our goal. I am not saying that it will be a smooth ride, we will be rocked back and forth in the water, maybe go down a couple times but sooner or later, we will make it to where we need to be. So why worry and stress about something that we cannot change but instead why not just trust in God. For His love and grace gives us strength to overcome and a peace like no other.
