I came across this photo from a visit to the beach back in the spring. Its beauty is awe inspiring and the peacefulness that you find there is unexplainable. Tranquil splendor. I was drawn to the sand drifts that are piled up against the fence. The results of the elements at work…the winds, the surf, the tides, the rains, and the storms...An illustration of our lives and how the elemental trials of life affect us. Sometimes we are carried by the winds, tossed about, straggled, and left dazed. The tides pull us in and out, forcing us under, taking our air…one direction then another, leaving us spinning around wandering which way it is back to the harbor. Then all of a sudden the gentle surf floats us to the surface allowing us to breathe again and the rains wash over us, cleaning us, washing away all the gunk. As the warm sun dries our soul we begin to see the beauty again…we are able to think, to cope, and go on. There is a balance, natures balance and God’s way of balancing. He balances our lives through His blessings, giving to us unselfishly, asking nothing in return except that we love Him. Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him. ~ James 1:12. We should rejoice during our trials… not because of the trials themselves, but because of the end result of the trials.
12/30 Today I am grateful for the end result of the trails in my life.
66714 heads towards Lewisham with a rake of box wagons, just to my right is a unit just about to obliterate the shot I actually wanted, it didnt help that the freight crawled down the slope at about 2mph.
