I found these words from St Catherine of Siena on Fr. Paul Wharton’s blog Hearts On Fire. As someone who loves the sea and can relate to its many beautiful attributes, I thought the the reference to the sea and God’s grace was a fitting image.

You, O Eternal Trinity,
are a deep sea into which,
the more I enter,
the more I find,
and the more I find,
the more I seek.
O abyss,
O eternal Godhead,
O sea profound,
what more could you give me than yourself?
God’s grace, unsought and unearned,
blows through my life,
and all I need to do
is raise my sails to catch the full wind.

– St. Catherine of Siena 1347-1380
