Ocean water in Busan, South Korea

Water Bodies

Water is a gift from God.

Who made the waters?

Full in the morning.

Scanty at midday.

Spacious and deep at night. 

Shallow when the heavy sun beats.

Who made the seas?

Constantly following itself ‘the waves’.

Racing to touch each other but never reaches.

Small and slow during the calm Winter.

Rushing like big marathons at Summers.

Who made the oceans?

It comes close and goes back daily.

How does it widen when the rain pours?

Why do hot rays not make it warm deep inside?

It lingers but rarely crosses the shores.

Who made the rivers?

Refreshes most bodies after a swim.

Yet plenty of salty sodium in a human’s belly ends life.

Host to all fin flapping creatures.

Its inhabitants provide protein for health.

Who made the lake?

It suspends the ship’s steel.

Uplights the bouncing boat.

How does the paddling canoe move?

The submarine can almost hide in it.

Who made the canals?

It has many shades.

Blue, blue-black, spirogyra green, and gray.

Pinkish, forest green, orange, red, and many indescribable.

Beautiful breathtaking sites to behold.

Who made the bay?

Flapping their feathers,  ducks have the ponds to quack.

Uncountable tadpoles will randomly make it home.

Frogs will sing all-night praises.

The varieties in crayfish and fish are still unknown.

Who made the pond? 

God made the waters.

Source: Water verses in the Bible

Water has been used to describe several aspects of spiritual life in the Bible.

John 4: 14

But whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again. The water that I will give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”

Isaiah 12:3

With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation.

John 7:38 

Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water’

Revelations 21:6

And he said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty, I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment.

 

John 3: 5

Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

The love of God is not a feeling is another poem worth reading.
