The sea of life is healing, it heals our souls, it is living
water, the essence of life itself, now we must do all that we can to
return the Gulf of Mexico to a healthy, vibrant beautiful fountain of life! We
must work to heal the sea!
Thank you Lord for the many times I had the privilege to
experience the majesty of Your Sea and thank you for the many volunteers and workers who have helped
save birds, wildlife, turtles and marine animals, may God bless you.
We appreciate everyone's efforts to clean the Gulf.

Stephen Hardee, Master of the Kayak on the
Caribbean Sea,
Happy Birthday Stephen! Stephen once
dreamed of being a marine biologist, perhaps healing and
studying the sea is one of your callings, son, among many, I am
sure. I know you and Kristal love the Lord and the sea.
I am so happy for both of you that you found each other and the
Lord. May God bless you this birthday and every day. Mom

Thank you Lord for stopping the oil spill in
the Gulf, we know You are
healing the sea through the eyes of faith!
We believe in You, Lord even
though we have not yet seen You with our human eyes, we have seen and heard You;
however, through the Ears and Eyes of Your Spirit through faith, and we
have seen the glorious beauty that You created in the
earth and the universe. Your sunsets are so beautiful
Lord!
We have come to
know the voice of the Gentle Shepherd who leads and guides and calms our fears. We know and thank You Lord that you are healing the sea, and the world
which is Your Garden.
I know you have heard the agonizing, prayers of your children.

and Kristal Hardee
We rejoice in your
answered prayer. You lifted our burdens at Calvary and we thank you for lifting
this burden to Your Shoulders to bear. We know that you can
transform all pain and suffering, as well as the utter
desolations and disappointments in life, into treasure chests of
beauty when molded in Your Hands, Your Love cannot be conquered
or overcome. Your love reaches to the deepest depths of
the ocean and the highest heights in heaven. The Lord
perfects His Creation through suffering, like an oyster perfects
a pearl through generating protective secretions over irritating
particles that filter inside the shell that become glorious
priceless pearls. We are God's treasure, He is perfecting
us. It is only through struggle that the butterfly works
its way out of the cocoon and spreads its wings and flies.
Thank you Lord for the suffering from irritations, that perfects
us. We don't understand why Lord, but we trust your
perfect and complete Design and Guidance.
You are the Good Shepherd who holds
the burdens of the World in Your Hands.
Thank you Lord Jesus, the
Christ, the Messiah, the Only, One and True Living God!

Since the dawn of time, the birds inspired mankind to dream of flying,
inspired sailors to catch the wind with sails,
save
the sea birds, their value is worth more than gold or oil!
Let us soar with the angels of the sea and sky!

There is no greater beauty than the sea, the
sound of the surf relaxes and soothes the soul,
Sea breezes enchant and delight the
senses, salt water refreshes and heals the broken heart,
Soaring horizon clouds and ocean view lures the spirit
into harmony with God and eternity.
Imagination unites taking flight with
the seagulls on the winds of the tide.
Rose petals dance in the blue misty sea
breeze romance, enticing ships to sail for paradise!


Great White Egret, placed in memory of the glorious
sea birds
of the Gulf Coast who died in helpless agony from the oil disaster,
they now soar in glorious epiphany like an ode to
the sea, those who died soar in our hearts forever on God's
Celestial Sea.

Our God will protect us by
covering us with His Feathers and under His wings we shall take refuge, as stated in Psalm 91: the Lord will place us in His
nest, high above the enemy, like a mother or father cares and protects
their young children or offspring.
He is like an eagle that
protects their young on the highest, mountain top in the tallest tree
inside a tender nest made with pure love.
Perfect love casts out
fear. God is love! God loves those who have marred His
beautiful world and creation together with its creatures and
populations. He forgives you through His Son who shed His
blood, suffered and died in your place for the sins that you
have done against His Glorious creation and creatures.

Psalm 91
(New King James
Version)
Safety of Abiding in the
Presence of God
He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High
Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of
the LORD, “He is my refuge and my fortress;
My God, in Him I will trust.”
Surely He
shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler.
And from the perilous pestilence.
He shall cover
you with His feathers,
And under His wings you shall take refuge;
His truth
shall be your shield and buckler.
You shall not
be afraid of the terror by night,
Nor of the arrow
that flies by day,
Nor of
the pestilence that walks in darkness,
Nor of the destruction
that lays waste at
noonday.
A thousand may
fall at your side,
And ten thousand at your right hand;
But it shall not come near you.
Only with your
eyes shall you look,
And see the reward of the wicked.
Because you
have made the LORD, who is my refuge,
Even the Most High, your dwelling place,
No evil shall
befall you,
Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling;
For He shall
give His angels charge over you,
To keep you in all your ways.
In
their
hands they shall bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against a stone.
You shall
tread upon the lion and the cobra,
The young lion and the serpent you shall trample
underfoot.
“Because he
has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him;
I will set him on high, because he has known My name.
He shall call
upon Me, and I will answer him;
I
will be with him in trouble;
I will deliver him and honor him.
With long
life I will satisfy him,
And show him My salvation.”

Jesus is the Fountain of Living
Waters!
Our prayers have taken flight on
wings of love to God's heart who mourns the desolation of His beautiful
creation. Our Father is recreating the ocean, land and the heavens.
His agony of suffering is giving birth to a new earth and a new heaven.
We
must unite with our Creator so we will be ready to enter His New Creation!
We must experience the ecstasy of being born again into His Kingdom
so that we
can experience His Love and Total Communion with His Holiness on Mount Zion, the
New Jerusalem.
Ask Jesus to forgive your mistakes and to wash you clean
with His springs of living water, causing a Fountain of Youth and Eternal Life
to spring up within your life.
Jesus loves you and wants
to clean your life from filth and restore you to wholeness and beauty. This
can be done by asking the Lord to enter your life, to be your Savior. Ask
Him to forgive your sins through His Shed Blood on the cross at
Calvary. Ask Jesus to take control of
your life, renew your mind and regenerate your body and spirit. The Spirit
of the Lord will enter your heart and light the generator of His love inside your
inner most being; the light of His Holy Temple, will flood your soul and He will
make you whole.
You will be reunited with your Father, the Creator and walk
again with Him in His Holy Garden of Eden. The Savior is waiting to enter
your heart, He will make you clean like pure rivers of living water, He will
flood your innermost being with peace, love and joy. You
will be forgiven of your sins and will be given divine guidance
that will put you on God's perfect path for your life and wisdom
for daily living. You will once again commune with the
Creator. His Creative Mind will merge with yours.
There is no limit to what you can accomplish with God's power,
strength, wisdom and help. Ask Jesus to give you help and
strength to conquer and overcome the darkness, depression and
guilt in your life.

Our God is unfathomable, He is beyond
our understanding, He is a God of both love and wrath.
I know for certain that our Lord hears and feels the pain and the
suffering of the birds and sea life and those who have lost loved ones and income. Our God
feels your pain and suffers with you. Our Father in Heaven loves everyone and He also
chastises those whom He loves. May the Lord of Heaven and Earth forgive us and have mercy upon us.
We have all fallen short of His Glory, it is time to fall on your knees and pray, thanking God that
He has smiled his rays of hope and had mercy upon us.
May we learn from this disaster and make the necessary changes
so that we can enjoy the American way of life to pursue freedom, happiness and liberty for all!
The Lord has heard our prayers and He is in the process of restoring the Gulf of
Mexico.
Let us give thanks to the Almighty God of creation!

Jesus is cleaning the land and the sea
with his tears of living water and reigns as Lord of Lords and King of Kings forever! Thy Kingdom Come! Thy Will be done! Jesus is
coming again, no one knows the day or time except the Father in Heaven. As
long as the earth and the heavens exist there will be seed time and harvest.
We must work to plant seeds, so there will be a harvest. We must do our part to help save and restore His
Creation, till Jesus comes! We cannot sit idly by, waiting, we must be ready to work to save the planet!
In the beginning the Lord gave man dominion over the animals and
the plants. It is our responsibility to clean the
environment and protect the plant and animal life on earth, both
land and sea. We must work with the Lord to clean the
environment and ecosystems till Jesus comes. This is our
heritage and destiny to take care of His Garden.

"Fear
not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; You are Mine.
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers,
they shall not overflow you,
When you walk through the fire, you shall not be
burned, Nor shall the flame scorch you. For I am the Lord your God,
the
Holy One of Israel, your Savior;"
Isaiah 43:1-3 New King James Version

Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
Your kingdom come.
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
As we forgive our debtors.
And do not lead us into temptation,
But deliver us from the evil one.
For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the
glory forever. Amen.
