Blue Box - Our first gathering

Our first "Blue Box" evening was so special........ I couldn't hold down my excitement.
My favourite thoughts were simply being together with new and old friends
sharing our journies together.
Captivating treasured memories in a small group gathering...........
Stories revealing deep and powerful growth steps we have all gone through.
An ambiance of a solo quitar, contemporary music, Celebrate Recovery teaching
with Rick Warren, and deep soul talk late into the night.

..........I can hardly wait for God to surprise us this week, as we begin Step I

September 28th Wednesday at WCV
· Principle 1 – Realize I’m not God; I admit that I am powerless to control my tendency to do the wrong thing and my life is unmanageable.
· Step 1: We admit we were powerless over our addictions and compulsive behaviors, that our lives had become unmanageable.
· Scripture: Romans 7:18
“I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.”
Matthew 5:3
Ø “Happy are those who know they are spiritually poor”
Ø “God blesses those who realize their need for him.”
Ø “You’re blesses when you’re at the end of your rope. With less of you there is more of God…”

Please come and bring a friend who needs support.

Catching the Wave

CATCHING THE WAVE

A panoramic view……………………..
I stand alone on the edge of the shore and stare longing, observing the beauty of the oceans wave. The vast body of water that follows it, obeys the intent of its maker to keep its boundaries. I am overwhelmed with the magnitude of its presence. I close my eyes, drifting away into a trance, allowing memories and warm feelings to flood my soul.
Serenely the sun sets and I see the saturating hues of blue pastels soaking up in the depths of the wave. Cascading white caps turn to foam and resemble multitudes of white doves diving into the ocean floor. The powerful waves crash down with force to repeat the sonata once again. The skylight brushed with a stroke of azure, evaporates into the sunset and disappears into the heavens.
Ocean floors cradles the moistened sands of time which soften the shed tears of the ocean. The tide kisses its lips ever so softly, tantalizing our souls, returning and inviting us into its home. The waves cradle me hypnotically to and from the shore. Leaving a desire and appetite so hungry it begs my attention to stop, to ponder, to contemplate my deepest passions and longings. Stirring desires of the heart for an intimacy that is unconditionally pure. An insatiable longing for authentic love.
Listen……………..
As I close my eyes I hear the crashing of the waves as they roll continuously in synchrony. Fleeting winds breeze by - resembling de-je-voux faint memories of the past. Soothing – peaceful - serenity. Waterfalls cascade with nature, reminiscent of rustling tree leaves that resound on a windy day. Listen closely; can you hear the sea shells echo the harmonious melody of the waves? In the distant you cannot escape the sea gulls cry for the prayers of the lost.
Breathe………………
Its fragrance permeates the air with an angelic breath of nature. You can smell the scent of moss and sweet grass and promising hints of newly budding plants. Whispering aromas capture the smell of the wind. A nostalgic familiarity of sea paraphernalia…….sea shells……. fish…….seaweed……..salt water.
Aroma………………..
The taste is indescribable. A refreshing water that pours from heaven, but quenches our palate to crave for more. Never tiring of the invisible flavor that wets our appetite. It tastes like a tranquility that would satisfies our anxieties, and fills our cup with anticipation of a new beginning.
Sensation………
It feels like shimmering due drops of angel kisses that touch our cheek. Wetting our lips, anointing our eye lids with hope. It feels like a gentle gust of air on a hot summer’s night. It massages a tenderness that combs through our hair. Emulating a lover’s touch innocently caressing the face. Embracing and swelling our bodies invisibly with a touch of sacred love. Giving our inner voice a spirit of laughter that chuckles indescribably. It is a calm rhyme of balance that soothes our mind, like a hypnotic fire that listens with understanding counsel. It heightens our spirits in sequence to both an overwhelming orchestra of emotions in complete stillness and aroused ecstasy.
Ambiance……………
Enticing us to be set free. Drawing our emotions into a place of surrendering bliss. It is the Spirit that flows through the heavens and absorbs its emotions into the waves. Floating into our souls to lure us into the lingering call of “Catching the wave”.
Desire……………
It is in the loneliness of our hearts that we reach out of ourselves and search for the quenching thirst of our souls. It is in the darkest times of our lives that we finally surrender, as we no longer want to hide anymore.
The deep cry for our yearning for love can no longer be silenced or muffled under the noise. Our hollowed eyes that cry for relief from silent tears whisper a prayer for truth.
You keep track of all my sorrows, You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book. Psalm 56:8
Invitation……………
“Catching the wave” is inviting those of you who are weary of walking down purpose-less shores of life. Who of you are tired of wandering aimlessly down pathways that are no longer satisfying and filled with void? It invites you to choose to part from your former self to a new identity. To submerge yourself in a new journey that will erase your imprinted footprints. Dissolving them from the sand to remain a faint memory.
A paradigm shift to a new perspective of thinking. Inviting you to an infinite wave of philosophy that will inspire you to walk hand-in-hand with the Spirit who is mysteriously one with God.
