In the middle of the ocean 

In the darkest of storms

I was shivering from exhaustion 

Alone and gasping for air

I thought I had died

Overcome with grief

Drowning in loneliness

No one could see me

My shouts fell flat amidst gigantic waves that roared in crescendo 

I spiralled into despair

Wondering if I had a way out

An escape from the maddening chaos

To an imagined world of tranquil waters

Crystal clear vision into my weary soul

Then the waves washed me over to the shore

And then I looked at the vast ocean once more

A hand reached out to me

Giving me respite from the brutal storm

I fell asleep to the humming music in the air

For the first time in my life 

I saw the face of forever

The palpable presence of hope and strength 

Resilience that shut the anger of the storm

There she stood amidst the waves 

Serenading the vastest of oceans

Calming the fiercest of storms

She showed me the miracle of faith

Unlocking the key to the purest of joys

She brought me closer to myself

To see all the good and beautiful, all the bad and ugly, all the rivers and deserts, all the peaks and valleys

She helped me throw away all the labels, all the limitations, all the boxes, everything that was burdening my load

She showed me how to befriend the ocean

She showed me how to embrace the storm

She inspired me to walk in the ocean of storms

Blessed bliss beyond compare

She shared the jewel that she discovered 

She revealed the source of her indomitable strength 

The radiance of her countenance 

That wanted me to hope once more

She pointed me to THE ROCK

Immovable Rock 

Unshakeable Fortress

Her face beheld the Most Beautiful Light

She reflected The Light of Life that illuminated the darkest of tempests and the toughest of storms

She was gazing upon OUR PRECIOUS LORD JESUS CHRIST

He held her hand throughout the storms

He embraced her and shielded her that she supernaturally walked in the ocean of storms

And so now because of our MIGHTY MATCHLESS KING JESUS, 

We’re both walking gloriously on water

We’re dancing jubilantly on waves

We’re celebrating our eternal victory in God’s sweetest embrace

She is my sister, she is my dearest friend, 

The truth seeker, the jewel emancipator, 

The giant slayer, the true general, 

The most beautiful radiant precious authentic human I’ve ever loved

She is the Storm Chaser
