Mornings

In the mornings, around 7:15 before we leave to see the boys and begin our day, the four of us meet for devotions on the back porch. We watch the tide go out on the little piece of the Indian Ocean we’re on; the deep blue changing to aqua and then finally receding to the white sand. Today Julie led, talking about facing the giants in our lives and keeping our eyes fixed on God. Then during the first song she played, whales appeared. Throughout the next few minutes, we watched the water spouts as the music played, and even saw a few briefly come above the surface. It was pretty spectacular!
