The ocean is a metaphor for the vast depth of the love of God. Our lives, however we use them, are our gifts to Him, (made acceptable through the sacrifice of Jesus should we accept His salvation). God so longs for us to give ourselves to Him completely, forsaking safety, fear, and sin for His abundant life that "turns the tide" of our lives and makes us whole.
