No storm is so overwhelming that God’s grace doesn’t overwhelm it more.

Multiplied grace be upon all our brothers and sisters suffering from the storm. May the presence and power of Jesus rest upon you, shining His love to your neighborhoods and communities, bringing strength and comfort and the light of LIFE.

BY THE GRACE OF GOD

Song by Bethel Music, Brian Johnson, Jenn Johnson

I rest my soul on Jesus
When the mountains shake.
I put my trust in Jesus
The moment I awake.

And when my soul is lost at sea
He will be my rock.
My vision be in Christ alone
This grace is all we’ve got.

His love is like the mighty ocean.
His love for me will never stop.
Oh, His arms are strong enough to carry me
Through it all, by the grace of God.

So I, upon His shoulders
Safely brought this far.
Helper of my helpless soul
The King of broken hearts.

His love is like the mighty ocean.
His love for me will never stop.
Oh, His arms are strong enough to carry me
Through it all, by the grace of God.

You are the passion of my life,
Lord Jesus!
You are the song within my soul!

My strength.
My hope.
My all in all is You.
Jesus, You.

Thank You, Lord.

When breath grows still and night draws near
I will not be afraid.
I know the plans He has for me
Don’t finish at my grave.

His love is like the mighty ocean.
His love for me will never stop.
Oh, His arms are strong enough to carry me
Through it all, by the grace of God.

Through it all, by the grace of God!

By Your grace, I stand!

Foggy Cloudy Kalaloch Beach 3

“Peace in the Gloom”

It was a gray, overcast day at Kalaloch, Beach Number 3, on Washington’s northern Pacific coast. Coastal fog hung in the air, adding to the moody atmosphere. The weather wasn’t unusual for the area, but I had hoped for blue skies and sunshine to brighten the day’s photography. Funny how this parallels life, doesn’t it? We often long for the “blue skies” – the cheerful, warm, and easy moments. But just as we wake up to unexpected clouds and gray skies, life also brings its share of heaviness and gloom.

I adjusted my plans, grabbed my tripod and filters, and set out to find the beauty in the gloom. And I’m glad I did. Standing on the rocky shoreline, camera in hand, I found peace in the stillness. The scene may not have been bright, but there was a subtle beauty in it. I felt a deep sense of joy as I stood there, reminded that both joy and peace can be found, whether the world around us is filled with light or shadow.

God’s grace helps us see this beauty, and His strength empowers us to push through even the darkest days.
