Reading – Psalms 89-91

Highlight Verse:

“You rule the oceans. You subdue their storm-tossed waves.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭89‬:‭9‬ ‭NLT‬‬

When I lived in the Santa Cruz, CA area, I loved to go out to West Cliff Drive toward Natural Bridges State Park.

I would stand on the cliffs and watch the waves pound so hard, the ground vibrated and the water sprayed higher than the tops of the cliffs.

Despite its plural name, Natural Bridges State Park now only has one natural bridge. One stormy night in 1980, the second, larger bridge collapsed under the constant pounding of the waves.

Every time I went there, I stood in awe when I felt the immense power of the ocean waves overwhelm my senses.

And God created that mighty ocean with a word.

With power that immense, my little problems are no problem at all to God, if I can only trust Him.

What parts of creation inspire you to worship God?
How does His amazing power affect the way you see Him?
