"The earth is the LORD’S, and all it contains, 

The world, and those who dwell in it." 

One of my favorite things to do in Wyoming is take an afternoon walk. Once breakfast is served, cookies are baked, dessert is ready to serve, and the kitchen is in order, there are a few precious moments to step out into the wonder of the wilderness for some fresh air before dinner. It is in these moments that I discover the never-ending wonder of clouds as they alternately hide and frame the mountains, I embrace the playful wind as it caresses my face and hands and roars powerfully in the pine trees above my head, I smile as the aspens leaf out in a fresh, springy shade of green, and I delight in the goodness of a God who created both the majestic grandeur and the lovely wild flowers fighting for life in the dessert terrain. 

Yesterday morning, I read Psalm 24. These verses ran through my head all day:

"Who is the King of glory? 

The LORD strong and mighty, 

The LORD mighty in battle. 

Lift up your heads, O gates, 

And lift them up, O ancient doors, 

That the King of glory may come in! 

Who is this King of glory? 

The LORD of hosts, 

He is the King of glory."

Especially beautiful clouds one day. I love living in a place that looks like a puzzle!
