I stepped out onto the balcony of the condominium breathing in the salty air. A cool breeze blew across the shaded porch tickling my face. I listened to the gentle waves crashing and rolling on the beach and sat on the patio furniture to absorb the beauty.
I sighed and closed my eyes taking in refreshing breaths. After weeks of blistering and humid heat in August in Arkansas, I was delightfully surprised by the cooler weather and pleasant breeze on Perdido Beach in Florida where the condominium was located.
The sound of the washing waves seemed to wash away all tiredness from the long drive. The cool breeze seemed to blow away the heated stress of summer and life, bringing refreshment to my body and soul.
Something about the beach helps me encounter God and His majesty in His Creation. It’s here that I experience refreshment and renewal more than any other place in His beautiful world. Waves of refreshment have begun to restore my soul. How about you? Do you need renewal in body and soul too? Draw away with the Creator, enjoy His Creation too, and find your place of refreshment.
Beloved:
As you draw near to Me I delight to show you My majesty and My beauty in Creation. Let My waves of love wash over you until you are restored. Let My Presence shine upon you. Let the breath or breeze of My Holy Spirit blow away any cares and worries. You are restored in Me. I love you My darling one.
