God's creation...

Last weekend I watched a sunset. I don't mean I paused in my day and watched for a few minutes. I actually meet some friends at the top of Monteagle mountain (it is really a big hill but we call it a mountain.) We drove to the University of the South and went over the memorial cross. It is a huge cross that you can see for a few miles before you get to it. It is stationed at the top of an overlook. We got there early and for the next 45 minutes we sat and talked and watched the sun set.

How amazing is God's creation? I don't remember the last time I sat and just enjoyed how amazing He is and that He lets us enjoy His creation every single day. I have no idea how someone can see that everyday and not wonder if there is a God.

I often times fall into the same rut of not stopping and enjoying His constant gift to us. Everyday the sun rises and sets...Everyday He is there waiting to see if we are going to take the time to stop and enjoy His presence. He is always there waiting. If we don't come He will still come back the next day. I need to make more time to stop and just enjoy His presence. I recommend you try it too...find a pretty place with a great view. Get there early so you can enjoy the entire show and not just a momentary glance.
