Vacation Friday

Vacation Friday
Hi ya'll,
Our adventures took us winding around mountains. The higher we got, the less green trees surrounded us. Bare mountain tops with some logs lying down posed wonder. Then we saw it-Mt. St. Helens. The volcanic mountain that blew its top off. Remains looked like 2 smaller peaks on one mountain.
We climbed the hill up to a museum located right in front of this enormous mountain. Inside, we watched footage of May 18, 1980. That was the day the volcano blew out the side and an avalanche of debris of ice, snow, trees, and ash began flowing down the mountain. It filled deep gullies. Other mountains were covered. There were about 100 earthquakes that day. Then the top blew up into the air miles up, sending ash boiling up in rolls. Rivers were filled with ash and logs. Air was polluted with ash. Lakes, animals, and the once green environment were gone some 15 miles away.

Land features were changed forever. Well, almost.  Here we saw green trees, grass, new lakes, some 37 years later. Well man helped replenish some. Now tourists come to see the handiwork and power of God.

But I wonder how many recognize this phenomenon was made by Almighty God. The wonder of wonders. A Wonder God He is. His wonders never seize.

Zoom in with me to your neck of the woods. Well maybe your street.

So do we recognize His wonderous work in our life?
And do we see His love everywhere?
Is there a day we can say that we experienced His hand on our life?
So many times I have.

We fly home on Monday. Hopefully we can get back to Nehemiah the next day.
See you then. Oh, let us remember the communities around Houston. I have a cousin who lives there with his family.

In awe of an Awesome God,
Linda
