This weekend we visited the Blue Ridge Mountains. What beauty God has created. It's great to look out over the rippling ridges of mountains, enjoy the color and feel an escape from the day to day routine.

But I discovered you don't have to travel far for something special. Today, on the way home from bringing my son to his carpool home, I drove back through a country rode with the sun rising. A field of horses was to my left (they started running) and with the early morning mist, it gave the whole place a heavenly feel. It was like driving into heaven!

It makes me realize that when we know the Lord, and eventually leave this life to meet Him, it will be a beautiful experience and that our loved ones who have gone on before to meet Him don't want to come back! It is some comfort to realize they are basking in the light of His glory every day. Print This
