Musings at Altitude

It’s beautifully white outside now, the result of our latest pre-winter precipitation.  Everything looks so pure, so untouched, so as it’s supposed to be in November – especially in Colorado. 

Since it’s Sunday and we’re bunkered down in the house, I’ve been listening to my favorite worship songs, those with very special words and wonderful meanings.  Right now, Hillsong’s Still is on…

When the oceans rise and thunders roar,

   I will soar with you above the storm.

Father you are king over the flood,

   I will be still and know you are God.

What a beautiful song with such a powerful message of faith. 

Just before that, Hillsong’s At the Cross was on…

Oh Lord you’ve searched me,

   You know my way;

Even when I fail you,

   I know you love me. 

As I stare out my window at the wonderful majesty of this snow covered landscape, I can’t help but smile in acknowlegement of both the Creator and His creation.  And as I listen to these worship songs and let the words penetrate deep into my heart, I can’t help but bow in prayer and thank God for His presence and His love.

This is a special day indeed.
