Nature: One of God's Love Letters

Isn't it fascinating how nature has this mystical power to rejuvenate us? We find peace and quiet as we walk in the woods. We find solace when we fix our gaze upon rivers, lakes, and the ocean. We slowly unwind as we hike up hills and mountains, leaving our chaotic lives behind us. God understands the enchantment of wild, untouched beauty. He created it! And He uses it time and time again to refresh us and speak to us.

This past week I went to Timberline in Winter Park, Colorado. It's the first time I've been to Colorado and seen the mountains and the beauty of it all. I was completely disconnected from home and the outside world and it was probably the best week of my life. As we were hiking, biking, and white water rafting, it was incredible to intake. He really knows how to use His creation to capture your mind and to speak His word. He truly captured my heart this week and brought me back to Him and His wonder.

Have you reveled in the glory of nature lately, letting your soul drink in all of God's works through His creation? God may have some cool truth He wants to remind you of how much He loves you.

"Look up to the skies. Who created all these stars? He leads out the army of heaven one by one and calls all the stars by name. Because He is strong and powerful, not one of them is missing." -Isaiah 40:26
