Climbing Man-made Mountains . . .


Have you ever had a mountain top experience only to have your euphoria shattered by the reality it was a structure manufactured by your own pride and vanity? A fantasy dream, nothing more than an ego trip, from which you slipped and fell? I've been there, and it's not a pretty sight!

I am so thankful for the Lord's safety net, and the knowledge He is with me the whole time, waiting at the bottom to catch me when I fall. His love and care is never diminished by our careless acts of self-importance and foolish inclinations. God's true nature is far beyond our comprehension and what so many people believe it to be. He is the essence of Love, and all it encompasses, including righteous judgement.

It's with that understanding He'll then open our eyes and show a true mountain to ascend, knowing that once we reach the top, we'll soar from the edge on wings of faith and hope, able to conquer any fear or doubt, having the strength to lift others up along the way.

Thank God He loves us and is always there no matter what mistakes we've made in the past. His Endless Love is sufficient!

In His Love,
