I look for God in the bushes (burning or otherwise), in books, zombie tv, conversations over waffle fries, and in gluten-free communion bread.
I believe sometimes the unseen can be seen, and when I catch a glimpse I take notes.

Observations from the Beach…

Here are some things I think when I’m sitting by the shore (indulge me):

1. Beach winds sound like God whispering through a megaphone.

2. The sea loves the sand more than the sand loves the sea.

3. The sun at noon lingers over the water, admiring itself in a million tiny mirrors reflecting and magnifying its glory.

4. Waves lift and pummel. Both.

5. Life is best lived in the surf—where water and land, chaos and order collide.
