Salty Sound Girl

I sing the mighty pow’r of God, that made the mountains rise,
That spread the flowing seas abroad, and built the lofty skies.

Issac Watts, 1760

Salty Sound Girl

Seek the Lord

while He may be found,

Call upon Him

while He is near.

WELCOME!

Hello! Glad you stopped by. I’m a salty “Sound-Girl”, writing from the Puget Sound region, in WA state. I’m also known as Kristen.

In our corner of the world, we enjoy mountains, wildlife, and salty waterways surrounded by evergreen trees. When the sun is shining and the sky is blue, it’s easy to “sound forth” our praises to God.

However, in the rainy season, it’s a different story. For nearly 7 months, we endure endless grey skies, drippy lichen hanging from the abundant alder, and rainy day after rainy day.

Sounds a lot like life. Days of rejoicing, days of hardship. And within every day, lies an opportunity, a welcome, from God Himself.

We are invited, we humans, precious in His sight. We are invited to seek Him, to care about what He cares about, to be included into His family. We are invited to know God, and the Lord Jesus, whom he has sent. We are invited to love.

Keep on Counting!

The song is a prayer, where the singer tells the Lord that he can’t even count high enough to name all the blessings from above.
