I love this post and I ...I feel like that too Erin. I love this post and I really enjoy the beach when its not beach season. To go there an walk on it without all the "summer fuss" makes me feel close to God too. I've always lived in coastal places and I can't imagine what it would be like to see the beach for the first time because I am still always awestruck at its awesome massive beauty. I feel that way about flying too. I don't "love" flying on airplanes. I always pray before I get one but when flying low and seeing the earth below I get the same feeling of how awesome God is.Kenya G.

Life has been busy lately and I got about a month behind on my normal online reading. Sitting in the hospital with my wife after two surgeries in five days, listening to her cry in pain most of the evening and night, I read this and looked at your pictures of this truly peaceful place.<br /><br />This tough "nothing affects me" man can"t stop crying now.<br /><br />My wife spent her early years on the gulf coast and we went to Padre Island for our honeymoon. She is expected to make a full recovery and as soon as possible we will be making a trip to find our own quiet spot on the beach.<br /><br />Thank you<br /><br />Chuck Boyle<br />Oklahoma CityChuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02957395438919268124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488152270326221518.post-25337395167989719742012-05-14T21:00:48.802-05:002012-05-14T21:00:48.802-05:00Maria, I can't wait for your first Mother'...Maria, I can't wait for your first Mother's Day next year!!!!

There's such beauty and peace when I'm sitting there listening to the waves crash against the shore. It's something I deeply miss about not living in California anymore. Now in PA, God escapes with me into nature in other forms. There's so much beauty here that I've never been able to experience before. I guess you can say, the Master is molding me into a more well rounded person.
