I saw a picture of someone caught in a whirlpool surrounded by rocks. The water was up to their neck and they could not get out. They were continually being dragged down. Their emotions were in turmoil and their strength was gone. They felt that there was no way out and the end was about to come upon them. Suddenly from seeming nowhere fresh water flowed under them and the tide began to rise, as the water rose so the person rose with it. Soon the rocks could not be seen, they were deep under the current. And as the current flowed it took them with it.
When we feel pushed to the limit God has ways of rescuing us. When all seems lost and there is no turning back, endless Grace steps in. Nothing will stop His purposes from being fulfilled in our lives as we yield to Him. There is a fresh supply of Grace on its way. There is no end to His sufficiency. You might feel like a little fish swimming in the ocean, and saying to itself "I've come to the end of my resources I can't swim anymore because there is not enough water!" when there is the whole ocean. You cannot reach the end of God's Grace, because there is more and more and more, and to discover the more, you have to need it!
'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness' 2 Corinth 12:9
'Be Still'
'Be Still And Know That He is God'
Symbolism: The Dove is the Holy Spirit. The shadow of wings is the covering of His love. The seat is a place waiting for you to occupy it. The Lily in the pool is the purity of Jesus.The trees are the 'Mighty One's' who watch over you.
YOU ARE INVITED TO ENTER IN!
There is a place, a tranquil, still place right in God's heart. He invites you to come and sit awhile and meditate, listening for His still small voice. Over you are the wings of God, shadowing and covering your life as you sit on the seat prepared for you. The world around is full of trauma and confusion, but in the midst of it all you can find Him and gaze awhile on His beauty and experience His peace.
