My prayer for you today….
That you leave the safe harbors of life…..
And enter the open waters…..
Washing. Waiting. Welcoming you…..
And that grace….like a strong sea….
Would cover you…..
Change you…..
Call you deeper to things you never thought you would know or see….because…..
“Twenty years from now….
You will be more disappointed by
the things that you didn’t do….
Than by the ones you did do.”
So…. by His grace. Direction. Leading….
“Sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore.
Dream.
Discover.”
~ Mark Twain

This is great. The pictures are lovely. And I love how you talked about leaving a safe harbor to dance the tides. I recently felt God leading me to leave my safe, predictable job to follow His plan…and I am both nervous and excited. This was a very encouraging post at this time.
