I had two sets of friends at the Grand Canyon on the same day. One was visiting and showed pictures from the edge. The other was hiking his way to the bottom and back up over the weekend.
Seeing pictures and looking at how immense it is makes me go to a place of awe. God allowed this to be created. Carved over so many years by the river that snakes through it. Set in place by God's design in how our world works together.
Thinking of my friend and his brother sitting at the bottom of this immense expanse left me wondering. When you wake up the next morning, crawl out of your tent, and look up what do you see? Endless walls of rock rising so high you can't see the top? The looking side to side and not seeing an end on either side? Then the sky above it all.
The songs telling of God's love as so deep and so long and so high come to my mind. Doesn't this show that to us in His creation. Even the rocks cry out so that there is no doubt that what is there had to be made by God.
AWE! That is the only word to really describe what happens when seeing this amazing part of our earth.
