The Sound of Many Waters



The sound of many waters is an apt description of a visit to Niagara Falls.  This is a picture of the American side of Niagara Falls, viewed from the Canadian side.  Isn’t that ironic?  The American side is best viewed from another country.  Maybe, we who have been born and raised in America don’t always see the blessings and benefits that we have been given.  The same can be true on a spiritual level as well.  It’s so easy to take for granted all that we have.  The sound of many waters, that’s what you hear as you marvel at the beauty and wonder of Niagara Falls. The Psalmist says that God is like the sound of many waters.  Maybe what the Psalmist had in mind was that as we meditate and ponder on the majesty and greatness of God, that the awesome sound of God’s thundering love and grace towards us, would drown out all the other noise.  That, my friend, is something we should never take for granted!
