The Big Wave

8-8-13  – Elul 1 (The beginning of the 40 days of repentance before Yom Kippur and begins the 40 days Yeshua spent in the wilderness, tempted by HaSatan)

Our family was living in an apartment or condo. We were all standing outside watching a big wave that was headed right toward us. This was strange because we did not live on the beach. We were not afraid. We all stood together, close to our apartment building, watching it come closer and closer, and felt pretty confident it would not affect us, as there was a point in the distance where waves had always broken before and never came past. But this time it kept coming, and it didn’t stop. By the time the wave finally got to us the water was only an inch deep, but we were very surprised with how close it came. It stopped just inches short of our apartment building.

What does it mean?

The wave: We were not living on a beach. The wave could represent invading armies, civil unrest, terrorism, financial collapse, martial law, or any number of calamities. The wave symbolically represents the coming tribulation.

The apartment building or condo: We have lived in houses for the last 28 years. The condo may represent like-minded believers living in communities similar to Goshen or a camp of the righteous.

Although the “wave” came closer than we ever expected and we were surprised, it did not overtake us.  –  SHALOM!
