The River

Driving home tonight it was amazing seeing the river as we passed over the open grate bridge. I was reminded in so many ways how God's love protects, comforts and calms the raging sea during the difficult storms of our lives. One side of the river was flowing roughly and had jagged rocks and rapid flowing current, while the other side was amazingly calm and peaceful. It was a complete contrast, yet in so many ways comparable to life's ups and downs. As beautiful and serene this scene was it did remind of my own struggles, the way that my life has been lately. Even with these struggles I am reminded of God's grace and the way he takes care of us. I have peace just knowing that no matter challenge I am facing each day, God will handle it for me if I fully surrender.
