“Faith is knowing there is an ocean because you have seen a brook.”
— William Ward
I read this quote over the weekend and it really resonated with me. What a way to live life!
God has given me options of where I want to see Him. Do I want to find Him in “big” events and miracles, looking for what would be monumental intersections in my life and in the lives of those around me? That is a powerful way to live and I applaud those that seek these moments. In the oceans. For me, I enjoy the brooks. The more frequent, and sometime fleeting, moments when God pops into my day and says, “hi”. Remembering, though, that God is the ocean and the brook. Remembering, also, that what is a brook to you or me, might be an ocean to someone else.
In Ward’s words, I know God does great things because I have seen Him daily in snippets.
Today, may you see a brook.
