God is Oh-So-Very Big

I recently came back from a trip to Colorado; my first trip in that part of the U.S! Needless to say, it was incredibly beautiful. I am once again floored by God's beauty. I could spend hours talking about just how beautiful the clouds on the drive from Denver to Telluride were, and even that would not do them justice. The mountains were enormous and makes a person feel so itsy-bitsy. I've added a few pictures here, but these don't even begin to scratch the surface! This is probably one of the most beautiful places I've been to in the U.S. Every time I look through these pictures, I can't help but want to worship my awesome Creator! SUCH a place of peace.

Then there was the hike that Jace, his brother Shane, and I took up Mount Snuffles to see the Blue Lakes, which are actually THIS blue.

And last but not least, Box Canyon Falls!

I am so thankful that I had the chance to go on this trip!

Falling in Love with the Creator

Both of these pictures are absolutely beautiful, but in different ways. One of them makes us open our mouths wide at its vastness. We see the huge mountains and lake and the vivid colors and we feel small. We know that something greater than us must have created this masterpiece. The other image is beautiful in the details. It is carefully put together, each small petal crafted to perfection. We look at it and wonder if we would have taken the time to do that. We see that whoever made it obviously cared about it.
I look at these images and see God: God in his hugeness and God in his perfection, God in his power and God in his love. God took so much time and put so much thought into each piece of his creation - these are just two small, minute parts of the world! How much more important are we that he chose to make us in his image? Our God is so beautiful.
