For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea, they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end.
— Habakkuk 2:14 (NIV)
I took this photo on our first trip to Pacific Grove, California in March 2006. Pacific Grove is a small community located right on the peninsula near Monterey. It was about 7:30 pm with the sun getting ready to set. I’m not sure what it is about the sights and sounds of waves crashing on the rocks, but I can spend hours doing it, especially when the sun is rising or setting. I guess it gives you a sense of how small we are in the world, how insignificant we are in the universe. I like what James said in 4:14 – You don’t even know what your life tomorrow will be! You are like a puff of smoke, which appears for a moment and then disappears. (GNT)
Wow! a puff of smoke and then gone. So what do I take from that? Make your life count, make it count for the kingdom of God.
