The ocean is full of weird and wonderful things that have been created by God. This book only tells a little bit. It is just the tip of the iceberg. The Bible says, O Lord, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches. So is this great and wide sea, wherein are things creeping innumerable, both small and great beasts. Psalm 104:24-25
I have chosen six ocean animals to write about, as well as random fish. Since there are so many different kinds of fish, there are double lessons from fish. My children, Hannah, Esther, and Joseph, have helped me make drawings. To find their drawings, look for their names. I drew the ones with no names.
I am a preschool teacher. One term at preschool, we did an ocean theme. I realized that I knew hardly anything about ocean animals. So, I studied a bit, so I could teach the children. It made me want to write another devotional. But there were two problems. I had already started another devotional that I had not finished. And I hardly had any time to write. I decided I couldn't do it. But God made it clear to me in lots of little ways that He wanted to do it. The verse above is one of them.
I am also a Bible story teacher at our Christian school. At the time, I was teaching the story of Johnathan when he went up to fight the Philistines. It is a very exciting story! You can read it in 1 Samuel 13-14. But Johnathan was able to win victory against the many Philistines with only 2 swords and a very small army. God helped him and that made all the difference.
This is what I wrote in my journal.
I have very little time to write (And I'm still not finished my Buildings book). But the Israelites won against the Philistines with only two sharp swords and a small army. I have the disadvantage of little time. And the ideas and the wonders of God's creation is overwhelming. But I can trust God, like Johnathan, and He will make a little go a long way.
That is exactly what happened. When I obeyed God and started using the little bit of spare time I had to study ocean animals and find lessons to learn, God helped me to write and finish this book. He gets all the credit.
