queens bath / 07.22.08, 01:40 PM
God speaks.
I’ve been getting ready to leave for Atlanta, and I’ve been really seeking God the past couple weeks more than usual.
Well on Thursday i kinda had a bad day. After the day was pretty much done, I decided to go to this place on the east side of the island (like 20 minutes from my house) called queens bath. usually me and my friend less go surfing in the afternoon, but for some reason she couldn’t so i just went alone.
(queens bath is a secret beach and its a 20 minute walk through some dried grass fields)… so i was jamming to some steel pulse and walking towards the beach, not knowing the lord was about to rock my world.
i finally got to queens bath, and i was all alone. From anywhere on the beach (half of it is on the side of a cliff), you cant see anything man- made. no houses, no cars, no streets, no nothing, not even buoys on the ocean. so i was in pure untouched creation. the sun was going down and beams of sunlight were shining down on the mountains…i felt like i was in Eden.
anyways, i swam a little, jumped off a telephone pole that someone stuck in some rocks, kinda like a pirate plank, and just played. i had a flower in my hair, and i wanted to give it to Jesus (i prayed that this is like my heart, a little beat up but i want to give it to you) so i threw it in the water, watched it spiral down and float towards the ocean,away from the rocks. i started to get my stuff together and looked back, and the flower was gone!
i was all bummed thinking my heart/flower got squashed on the rocks…. but i saw it perfectly because the flower was vibrant yellow and the water was blue (and crystal clear, so i could see that it didn’t sink), and it was floating away from the rocks and wouldn’t have floated to the rocks that fast anyways. so i looked for like fifteen minutes.. then gave up and was about to leave.
it was then that god spoke to me so loudly and clearly
malia, you serve a living god. wasn’t that flower for Jesus?
and i promise, that flower was gone. Jesus really did take it.
we serve a LIVING god. we dint serve one that is watching us from above, we serve one that came down to be with us. and he is! all around us and in us. he walks with us, crys with us, watches us sleep.
he is a living god.
