Will the Ocean Be Saved?

You have said to the sea,

“Thus far you shall come and no more.”

You have said to man’s greed,

“Thus far you shall come and no more.”

You have made a people for Yourself.

You spoke them to life and said,

“Thus far you have come……..

And I will call you farther.”

Praise to the Lord of Life!

For He has not restrained His people.

He has set them free to live!

He has touched them with His Holy Hand.

And to them He has said,

“I will come to you and take you to be with me.

This far you WILL come and it will be complete.

For where I am you will be also.”

The restraint of the sea does not belong to man.

The restraint against sin does not belong to God’s people.

Just as the hope in Christ is not offered to the ocean.

Amen.
