Oceanic

I recently 'made up' this word for my Pinterest page- Oceanic

But I later (after Google assisted me) saw that 'Oceanic' is an old word used for anything relating to the ocean.
There are bands and boats named Oceanic too, but that is irrelevant to this post.

I love, love, love the ocean...like love :)
I love the colours, I love the waves, I love the shells and I love the sound it brings.
The ocean is so strong yet incredibly graceful and peaceful.
The wind always smells so refreshing and the waves give me such joy.

When I am angry, happy or sad... I love to sit where I can see the sea and it gives me new perspective.
Almost like I am seeing God's amazing creation and it speaks to me through being so effortlessly amazing and glorious.

The Bible says that if we are silent, the rocks will worship Him.
Even if you don't notice it, no matter how silent, there is always a sound associated with nature, the earth is constantly celebrating, praising, worshiping and whispering the name of Jesus.

‘The Waves and Wind Still Know His Name’

I'm not sure where this originated from for me, but I know I spent a lot of my childhood running on the beach in Melkbos, building sandcastles and splashing about.

Through the years, the ocean has always been a kind of window into the heart of God for my life.

Funny enough Melkbos is where Kurt and I have bought a place, our first home.
