In rder to get where I am coming from, I need to rewind; the past couple of weeks I have been realy stressed out with Anatomy and physiology, and trying to do well in college. I neede an exscape, so we trudged and steped and hopped and grasped, just in order to get up to see the beauty that God has bestowed upon our land. So this is where I am in the story now, up ontop, releaved that we made it up there, but this wasn't the end of our journey, because as we got up to the top of our hike and to that opening, there were some 12 year old kids climbing out of a cave, I know thi is weird, but they told us that this cave was about 10 feet back and they put candles all throughout it if we wanted to go back. Well me and my roomate, beinging in an adventurous mood, decided why not. So we climbed and scraped our way up into the crevest of the cave. Then we bent ver and squeezed our way into the bow of the cave. Oh my did my heart swell when I saw the extencity of the lightly lit bow of the cave. see in the cave there were tons of creavis looking shelves, so ever two or three shelves you could see a light. this struck me as a sanctuary place, so we just sat there and stared singing-- not surprising me and chelsea sing everywhere. Feeling overwhelmed with Gods grace we started to make up songs and pray. We did that for like a half hour and realizing that we loved the relaxness we blew out all but one candle and took them for our next time there. then we wnent and layed on our blanket in the spot that we were comming to, before going in the cave. WE just studied and sat there taking in the beauty that God gave around us, and then I realized look it was hard to get to where we were sitting, and that we fret worry that we were not going to make it up there, but we got it up there and we got to see the beauty of what we worked to see. My wheels in my head began to tearn and I realized that this was life; you may stumble and you may worry but then you see that God was in charge and that we need to struggle in order to appreciate the good. that God was in charg and that I need to trust him.. Realizing that we packed up and slowly began to stumble back down the steep trail and back to reality and to the world we see below. |
