uh oh.
Big wave off on the horizon for our friend floating on the old piece of his house in the ocean. The wave is expected to impact him on Monday.
For over a month, the man floated along, relaxed, no need to build, no need to fight with an island that didn’t want a house built on it…. the worst thing our friend had to deal with in the ocean was the occassional shark that tried to ‘taste’ some of the trees floating by him (which had food). But for the most part, the man has been blessed.
And now…. off in the distance, what appears to have been a huge explosion has impacted his ears. He suddenly takes his gaze off of his relaxed state and looks off in the direction of his former home, now many miles away. He sees on the horizon, what appears to be a large wave – heading straight for him.
His heart sinks with terror.
What will be the outcome ?

“Blessed Be Your Name”
by Matt and Beth Redman
Blessed be your name
In the land that is plentiful
Where the streams of abundance flow
Blessed be your name
Blessed be your name
When I’m found in the desert place
Though I walk through the wilderness
Blessed be your name
Every blessing you pour out,
I’ll turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
Still I will say…
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your glorious name
Blessed be your name
When the sun’s shining down on me
When the world’s all as it should be
Blessed be your name
Blessed be your name
On the road marked with suffering
Though there’s pain in the offering
Blessed be your name
Every blessing you pour out,
I’ll turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
Still I will say…
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your glorious name
You give and take away
You give and take away
My heart will choose to say
Lord, Blessed be your name
