The water was dark as oil as I walked down the beach. "Ooh, this looks sticky, what a mess this is".
I wondered how it came to be.
"It was evil that brought it about".
"Oh Holy Wind, is it you"? "I thought You had gone to sleep for the day"
"I felt so alone and cold"
Holy Wind softly whispered: " No my child it is I, I am well awake and with you always."
"Oh thank You Holy Wind, it makes me so happy to know You are with me."
"I wonder as I wander around the forest and the sea in this enchanted world".
"What are you wondering about?" Holy Wind smiled down on the wondering wandering child.
"Well for starters, why evil paints oil on the sea."
"This is wonderland, where things are upside down and evil is good and good is wrong".
"Evil paints oil on the sea to turn the world upside down, oil should be under the bottom of the sea and not above." "Darkness should not cover the water of life but it does."
The upside down tree
I merrily walked along, feeling happy, for my Holy Wind Friend was with me and the darkness on the sea did not make me wonder anymore.
Suddenly I saw the strangest thing; an upside down tree.
"Holy Wind!" "What is that, that tree is upside down!"
Holy Wind sighed and His voice became sad as He answered me.
"You have seen well, it is an upside down tree."
"It was planted by me, but evil came and hid behind it in hatred, so I turned it upside down and he could hide behind it no more."
"But now the birds cannot sit on its branches anymore."
"Now the sun cannot play with its leaves and will go sad and darkened."
"Now the sun and the sea are darkened."
My eyes were filled with tears as I felt the yearning of the sun and the sea to be brightened again.
Holy Wind softly blew my tears away.
"Come now, don't cry, it will all be alright."
"When the clock is turned upside down again the six will become a twelve once more and you know twelve is my favorite number."
"Then all will be restored from darkness to light, the sun and the sea will meet each other at the horizon and together we will dance on the waves of joy unspeakable"
I jumped up in joy and grabbed His Hand as He pulled me up for a ride on the wings of His Wind around the wonderworld where everything was upside down.
But I did not wonder anymore for He had comforted my wandering wondering soul with His words of wisdom and love.
Blessings and love in Christ,
Monique
