I hate to say, "I TOLD YOU SO," but yesterday I predicted that the mountains would be covered with snow and would be simply amazing to see. It honestly wasn’t much of a prediction…but I was right. So today, here’s what I’m thinking as I look up there…
He formed the mountains by his mighty strength. He quiets the raging oceans and all the world’s clamor. In the farthest corners of the earth the glorious acts of God shall startle everyone. The dawn and sunset shout for joy! -Psalms 65:6-8 (TLB)
The everlasting mountains cannot compare with you in glory! -Psalms 76:4 (TLB)
He controls the formation of the depths of the earth and the mightiest mountains; all are his. -Psalms 95:4 (TLB)
Let the rivers clap their hands; let the mountains sing together for joy. -Psalms 98:8 (NCV)
Shall I look to the mountain gods for help? No! My help is from Jehovah who made the mountains! And the heavens too! -Psalms 121:1-2 (TLB)

I predict that the sun will rise tomorrow (or at least the earth will turn giving us the perception that the sun is rising when in reality we are spinning toward it).
But seriously thank you again for this blog, which gives me encouragement during the week and reminders to stay focused when life gets me off track.
John,
Your words of inspirations are wonderful. I have lived here 14 years and the snow covered mountains makes me stop and thank God for making this beautiful world and it is up to us, as Americans, to make sure that we do not destroy it.
I was just telling Jerry that the top of the mountain almost looks like a cartoon. It is so perfect.
I love the fact that something so simple can bring great feelings of joy and wonderment.
