Gulf of Mexico Sunsets

A recent cruise from Louisiana to Costa Maya, Belize, Roatan (Honduras) and Cozumel took us through the Gulf of Mexico.

I enjoy being on the water and falling asleep to the gentle rocking of the ship like a baby being cradled in the safety of their parent’s arms.

But now it was time to find a quiet corner and behold the beautiful landscape that lay before me. I snapped a few pictures and, frankly, felt quite small as a human being. The scene before me reminded me of how majestic the earth can be as if  God took His finger and painted the beautiful scene Himself.

“… for I have always been mindful of your unfailing love and have lived in reliance of your faithfulness.” Psalm 26:3  

So true. Every day I’m reminded of the many blessings in my life and I realize that God is faithful in all He has promised me, His child.
