beach times

I love the beach.

I love to sit and just watch that vast ocean continually move to and fro.

I love to watch the birds dive down for their lunch.

I love to watch my kids build sand castles and have shark teeth finding contests.

I love to read in the salty air and feel the breeze.

The ocean always reminds of me of this quote by Amy Carmichael

If I say, "Yes, I forgive, but I cannot forget,"
as though the God,
who twice a day washes all the sands
on all the shores of all the world,
could not wash such memories from my mind,
then I know nothing of Calvary’s love.
