Colorado: Amazingly Beautiful

And I feel completely inspired. This place looks so much like a movie set. You don't know for sure if it's real- but it definitely is! Praise God!

So surprising. Don't know for sure why? I know God is amazing. I believe it. I hear it. Well, it's easier to SEE it in Colorado. I'm here for a staff conference and I am so grateful to have this opportunity to come & visit. Talk about a change! Those who know me, know why :) hehee. Well, your prayers worked. I stayed in to have some R&R with my Creator. And can I tell you, he was speaking so loudly! First off look at my little "study" area:
WOW! Can you believe it!
Alright, so while I was doing the study for this week, I was inspired also by Chris Tomlin's new CD "See the Morning" And this song:So beautiful...love these lyrics: "Let Your Mercy Rain"
God, You have done great things
You give grace to the weak
And bless the broken hearted
With a song of praise to sing

You reached down and lifted us up
You came running, looking for us
And now there's nothing
And no one beyond Your love, Your love

You're the overflow
You're the fountain of my heart
So let Your mercy rain, let Your mercy rain on us

You're the faithful One
When the world's falling apart
So let Your mercy rain, let Your mercy rain on us

AMEN

There are these trees, I like to call them clappers because they sound just like they are applauding the Lords greatness. That's all you hear as the wind passes through them. So beautiful, kind of like a roaring stadium. I don't miss the palm trees. I do miss and love my family, but I grow stronger through their prayers and love. I know I needed this break to refocus. It reminds me so much of my time at Big Bear. (Norma, you know :) I'm just taking time to listen, learn scripture, and live it. Slowly but surely...one day at a time. Not wanting to come back down the mountain the same. Thankful, so very thankful for this moment of peace.
