Listen from:
V 20-23 "And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.”
Life in the waters is created. I mentioned earlier that we would consider the waters or seas might suggest the world's thoughts and opinions of dating. Such thoughts—the very spirit of this godless world—will always provide a hostile environment for Christian courtships. Yet if a courtship is of God, it will thrive and live in even these adverse circumstances. Trials and difficulties (which are sure to come) should never drown a courtship directed by God.
I don't know if I have ever witnessed anything so majestic and graceful as the sight of whales moving through the water in huge marine aquariums. The water is but the medium for this majestic animal to display its grace as it moves. And the beautiful colors and variety of ocean sea life are beyond description! Trials which present themselves in your romance should simply be the means by which its spiritual beauty, grace and strength are displayed.
