She
arose from the waves, on the darkest night of my life. As I sat on
the beach, contemplating my life's worth, I called to God in anger, " Why
have you deserted me Lord, I am alone and need you". I collapsed
on the sand and looked into the night sky, there were no stars. I
remember thinking, I have never seen such darkness, nor felt it.
I came to the ocean, when I needed to think. I would sit and
listen to the waves crash onto the shore, and be taken away by their melody.
It was here, that I could look deep into myself and figure it all
out. This night, I thought would be my last on earth. As I
knelt on the sand in the darkness, I felt a warm breeze
cover me like a blanket. It startled me, and I jumped to my feet,
it was then, that I saw her. She rose from the water and floated
to the shore. I couldn't take my eyes off of her, she radiated with
a soft light . The night grew still, and it seemed as though time
stopped. She motioned to me, to come closer, and I was drawn to her.
She spoke to me without spoken word , yet I understood her. I thought,
this must be heaven, or a wonderful dream. Her silent words comforted
me, like nothing I've ever experienced before. I felt no fear or
pain, only comfort. Her message was simple, and pure, "Your Father
loves you and hears your prayers, your time here is not finished, but begins
anew each dawn. Your life is his life, your breath, his breath.
Your journey is still new and there are chapters still unread. Embrace
life, and love each moment as he loves you. The night turns to dawn
because it is His will. You exist because He wills it, and it is
his will, that I comfort you now. Have Faith dear child, and never
let your fears delay your journey. Live and Love as he loves".
I was at peace. Death would not claim me tonight. She vanished
into the sea, to comfort another lost soul, for that was her journey.
I have never forgotten my night with the OceanAngel, and her words still
echo in my soul
