They had gone to the beach on a camp out.

It made me think about when I was a girl I used to love to go to the ocean.

We'd watch the tides come in and go out.

Sometimes when the tide went out it left behind starfish.

Other times it would leave jellyfish behind.

We'd walk on the wet sand but when the waves came in they took the foot prints away.

It was like nobody had ever been there at all.

Sometimes we made sand castles.

But then the tide took it all away.

We would find shells too.

They were really pretty and we would collect them.

Then the Lord spoke to me and said, the beach is like the things of the world.

The rules are always changing.

Nothing is stable and it fades away.

It's like last years styles of clothes.

The world said they were great last year.

If you were to wear the same style as last year they'd  laugh at you.

Like the sand castles we spent so long making so they were perfect.

It all washed away by a few waves as the tide came in.

The world holds things up to us that look like fun.

Many times they are beautiful.

But they don't last and we quicly lose interest in them.

Then the Lord said look to the right and left.

To the right was huge boulders with some people walking and climbing them.                                                                                       I could go back to that place everyday of my life.

Those boulders will not change because they are solid.

Different people will be climbing them.

Many will bask in the sun on those boulders.

The Lord said they are much like the Word.

It's the same today as it was yesterday and will be tomorrow.

It's forever te same.

Then I looked to the left.

As I looked up the rock I saw a cave not too far up.

We went and looked in the cave.

The sun shine shown into the entrance.

It was beautiful.

There were different kinds of stones enbedded in those walls.

There were even some shells that were in the walls of the cave.

Then I looked up.

There was a hole at the top so the sun shined down on us.

The Lord said, many hae come to see the beauity of this cave.

Some have returned over and over again.

The Lord said, I tell you the truth.

Those who continue to seek Me over and over again will be blessed.

For they are the Fathers children.

When it's time and you have run your race I will bring you home to the beautiful place that I've built for you.

The beauty is far greater than anything you've ever seen.

I'm the truth, light, and the way.

So follow Me all the days of your life.

Love your enemies so they might see the Light.

Seek the lost and plant seeds so they might turn to Me.

Love the sinners but hate the sin.

Forgive those who have done you wrong.

If you can't forgive neither will the Father forgive you.

PRAISE GOD THE FATHER, JESUS OUR SAVIOR, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT

THAT LIVES WITHIN ALL CHRISTIANS.
