Lockdown 789

Lockdown Day 789-24 May 2022

After almost a month, I walk into a mirror surfaced balmy ocean, no waves, just calm clear water.  Just as I prepare to start swimming, along come the dolphins, not too close, but close enough for me to see their eyes. I dive in, hearing the clicks under the water as they disappear towards the six pack. What a welcome it was.

Some of the other earlier swimmers were lucky enough to have swum between the dolphins. My day will come, that I know for sure.

Later, enjoying a cuppa at Indulge, I saw the dolphins speed-racing right up close to the water's edge. What a sight!

The salty air and the water confirmed I was indeed back in 'paradise', as the Tribe always says. I saw many little silver fishes and other larger fishes, swimming all around the rocks that are normally not so visible on the sea bed.

So tonight I celebrate God's creation and His Almighty hand in all our lives. I think about how, if He sustains those teeny tiny little silver fishes, He is in the details of our life and knows each hair on our heads. And I wonder why on earth do we waste time obsessing about the things of life we cannot control?

Instead of spending our time wisely and productively, doing what the Lord has put in front of us for the moment to do, we choose to entertain the worldly life and let its untrue mantras in.

Rather, choose to believe that He inside you is greater.

Because He is the only one who truly has got this.
