Early one morning a few of us hired a guide and walked the ¼ mile out to the reef. What amazing wonders of God’s creation!!! Our guide, Josef, did a great job teaching us about the creatures we found there. . .like this sea anemone he called a fire anemone. (Because if you step on it and the quills break through the skin, you will feel like you are on fire or, as Josef says, “You will dance with no music!”) This picture barely does justice to the bright red color and neon blue dots that outlined the star shape and certain quills.
It was a surprise to us that as we saw the tide begin to change, we realized we had been out on the reef for over 3 hours! My, how time flies! So we had to quickly make our way back to the beach before the waters got deep again. Our appreciation of God's creation expanded from this experience; He displays His care and love for us in every simple detail that He shows us in our world. How wondrous is our God!
