Lockdown 667

Lockdown Day 667- 22 January 2022
We traveled to Mossel Bay today, partly to escape the searing heat that is consuming the Bay and parts of the Sunshine Coast. Mossel Bay was warm but not humid with a gentle, cool breeze coming in from the ocean.

Amongst other things we  visited our Addo friends at their holiday camping site. I took the opportunity to cool off in the surf, but quickly noticed the ocean was unsettled with very strong Southern currents. A seal was also washed up on the shore along with many blue bottles and jellyfish.

Apparently the volcanic eruption in Tonga and ensuing tsunami caused shock waves now felt in as far as the Cape Peninsula, recording some of the highest swells ever for Cape Town. All ocean events were subsequently canceled.

After ending the day on Nina's stoep in Groot Brak, I retire with the events in Tonga still fresh in my thoughts.
Natural disasters have a way of reminding us of the forces of nature, pointing us to God, the Ultimate Powerhouse of Creation. Look at what a volcano and tsunami can do and know that force is nowhere even near to what God is capable of.

So just put everything His hands, He's got this for sure. ✨
