    Mountains are transcendent God places . . . a gateway where heaven comes closest to earth . . . where Jesus often alone went to pray. This evening I climbed a mountain and sat in silent awe as He adorned the sunset’s glow with an angel fly-by, assuring me of His presence. I M Blessed…

    Controlled burns in the Smokies added to their haze creating a Claude Monet sunset . . . a ‘picture perfect’ way to end the day. “The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands”. – Psalm 19:1                          …
