I'm inspired to write about standing in awe of God. We're doing a Bible study of Crazy Love and it was one of the questions raised last night. There were many answers, mostly sunrises :). The birth of children, just existing. The first time I remember REALLY standing in awe of God, was while I was in Forks and La Push. It was so beautiful and so quiet. The first morning when I went to take an early morning walk, I was greeted by this sight!
I mean, how amazing it that! It was also cool knowing that this same sun had come up in my town three hours before! It was just so amazing. Later in the day when we went through the woods to walk to the beach, I was so silent and so amazed. I just loved it there. It was the only time, that I know that I heard the voice of God. That I was being told to slow down and drink it in and enjoy it all. This was my first glimpse of the Pacific Ocean!
I am just in awe of this whole area. I can't wait to go back. I had really hoped to take the peace of this place back home with me. And taking the time to journal and pray more. I was so connected to God there. Of course, I had no chores, no kids, and no responsibilities at all. So, yes, it was easier. I just wish I could get back to that state of mind.
