mommas thoughts on GOD

AAA

I saw tears in my mothers blue eyes, eyes oceans deep

but she was not sad today

she recently fell into a bad work situation and i see her drowning in fear and worry

She looked me in the eyes and explained why she had been crying

" I was in church today."

silence struck 

" i was overwhelmed and heavy hearted. I tried to distract my mind from my struggles, i imaged floating in the ocean (this is my mother happy place due to her memories with her mom) and all i think about is the waves carrying me, and suddenly i thought about sharks and all the bad things in the ocean and i started to stress."

I stared at her with confusion 

she noticed my concern 

" See i felt God telling me that the sharks are evil, the devil, my stressful job, the arguments with the family. But God is the water he is the ocean surrounding me. no matter where you go in the ocean he is there, we can go absent but he can't"

everything become clear for me as well.my mother looked at me choking on her tears

" every drop of rain is us, meaning less unless we are together all the raindrops become the ocean, we are the body of Christ."

My mother is wise

she is beautiful

God is working in her life

i began to cry much like her

not with sadness 

but with relief 

GOD IS PRESENT
