"Your love O Lord is like the ocean - deeper than endless seas
Your faithfulness is like the mountains - and your word never fails."
In our day this is an odd lyric to sing.
I wonder if we consider ocean acidification, ocean dumping, oil spills, marine pollution and over fishing when we sing about God's love being like the ocean?
Do we consider over-mining, consumerism and the destruction of our habitat or melting ice-caps and avalanches when we sing about God's faithfulness like the mountains?
Quite possibly not.
We have the potential to do so much to taint and pollute God's love - yet it remains the same for his creation.
All of our experience, knowledge and drive has the possibility to exploit God's faithfulness - yet his grace still present within the created.
