Never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.

~ Harriet Beecher Stow



When the Tide Turns

Magnificent new stars will adorn the heavens today in God's endless work of creation. His generous gifts of light are more spectacular than the human mind can fathom. Yet they set an example for all those who would take the time to see.

The potential for creative action fills the spirit of each person as well as the heavens. While many look for it "out there," their creative potential lives inside. We were created in the image of our Creator.

The cool twilight of winter appears, and the earth rests for a season. Yet its spirit remains alive with action-potential. In the spring it will awaken to send new life bursting forth in vibrant color.

We were gifted with the same potential for miraculous achievements. We can use our potential and call forth our creative spirits in high tides and low tides.

Each person, like each star, was created with a divine purpose. Each has the potential to make a difference in the world. Just as the ebb and flow of the tide occur with exact precision, each person can live abundantly, in harmony with the give and take of life.

The tide will turn, so we can act with positive expectancy. Throughout life, the tide will continue to turn, and we will be prepared to act with faith. In so doing, we can expect many rewarding achievements.
