I am sitting here taking in the absolute beauty of what surrounds me at Lake Junaluska. The air is cool and sky is a little overcast. The flowers are glorious and the view. . . well you can see for yourself, it is beautiful. The most prominent sounds are those of a few walkers cruising bye and the geese of course. I am contemplating God's abundant love for all creation. I mean, how in the world can you gaze at this beauty and not feel anything other than love. You have to believe the master creator had us in mind when God created such beauty. Our friend Shelly Webb discovered this week the breath taking beauty of the Grand Canyon, our daughter Chelsea expereinced the unconditional love and beauty that the people of the Dominican Republic hold while there this summer. My friends Julie & Mike, Cheryl & Pete, Sharmon & Dan are holding in the hearts and arms the beauty of their new grandchildren. . . The miracle of creation is astounding every where you turn.
The question we need to be asking ourselves: are we being responsible stewards of the created world God so carefully loaned us as stated in Genesis?
We want our children's children, and their children, and all generations that follow to catch a glimpse of what we were able to see. . . don't we?
