Walking on the waves Oh Lord, I dive into mercy, my sins, wounds, and raging emotions burned away by your loving gaze. I look to you Lord, walking on the water in my inner storm, I look to you upon the waves taking one step at a time, And when I forget, and wander, Or allow fear to wound me yet again, so I begin to sink beneath the waves, it is then that you reach out and bring me up, embracing me in my messiness, loving me into beginning again… How loving you are towards all.—Br.MD
My favorite stained glass window at our church is Jesus, looking strong and sure, sitting in a boat calming the waves. It's my absolute favorite: it is very reassuring This prayer describes how I feel looking at that image.
