You would think I had never seen a seashell. I found these on the beach this weekend and I was about as excited as a 5 year old! I’ve collected many seashells in my lifetime, but never seen any this beautiful. For some reason I was completely, absolutely fascinated by these. The stripes. The colors. The textures. Such a variety. Such an unexpected blessing. Sitting there on the beach realizing how incredible the Lord is. It’s funny how things just hit you sometimes. No man could have created such detail, making each shell completely different. Its so encouraging and uplifting to realize that God pays attention to the tiny details. Little reminders that He already has every detail of my life planned out. So, lesson learned: Don’t sweat the details. He’s got it all worked out!
In my last post I mentioned the song, “In Christ Alone” and what a blessing it has been to me lately. Just wanted to share with you the lyrics of the last verse…my favorite:
No guilt in life, no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life’s first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell, no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand
‘til He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand
