God Dwells in His Creations

I just returned from four days at Diamond Lake. I stayed in a cabin that looked out over the lake and Mt. Bailey. I was only 20 minutes from Crater Lake and spent two days there as well.
I was surrounded by the natural pure beauty of God's creation. I hiked places that had very little evidence of humans and enjoyed my most favorite of God's creations [beside Cohen and my children and family and friends.]
Trees as far as the eye can see blended into blue sky, and lakes with water so pure one can see through it. Top it off with huge snow capped mountains and clean wonderful fresh air and it is my piece of heaven.

I went hiking alone and could feel God's presence every where. In the stillness of the purity that surrounded me I felt God embrace me with His loving warm touch. Thoughts and fears that had bothered me were lifted away and my heart was filled with gladness and answers to prayer.

At night fall I watched the sky open up over the mountain pouring a blanket of light onto the lake that shimmered with moon light and magical bright star light. It is a sensation I will never forget and an experience I will miss until I seek God's beautiful dwelling place again.

I am very thankful for all God's blessings and the freedom to explore.

I wish I had the discipline to walk like you do. It would probably do me a lot of good!
