As Bill Phillips tells us, "My wife Kristi and I have enjoyed several trips recently to the coastline along Oregon and California and one day we witnessed a storm that inspired the image here. The morning dawned gray with a strong wind, the sea as fierce as I’ve ever seen it, the waves crashing against the shore and throwing their spray skyward. We watched as afternoon waned and stood in awe as the sun broke through, bringing life to sea and sky. I thought of Psalm 27:1, ‘The Lord, is, my light and my salvation...’ for He, like a lighthouse, beckons us from the storms of life into the shelter of His love."
