the Steens Mountains are incredibly beautiful, and with a foot of snow covering everything they ate even more amazing. Hiking around in the snow this afternoon looking for an elk I was contually reminded of some Bible verses.

Psalms 8:3-5When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained; What is man that You take thought of him, And the son of man that You care for him? Yet You have made him a little lower than God, And You crown him with glory and majesty!

Psalms 19:1-2. The heavens are telling of the glory of God; And their expanse is declaring the work of His hands. Day to day pours forth speech, And night to night reveals knowledge.

Romans 1:19-20  because that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse.

all day long as I walked it was like I was getting a great sermon on the person of God. The result was that my desire to know Him more intimately, to serve Him more effectively, and love Jim more passionately grew . A good day hunting even if I didn’t see an elk.
