Because we live in the mountains, we often vacation at the ocean, which is a constant source of inspiration and opportunities to praise our great Creator!
“It’s strange to think that it’s the same sun that rose on the third day of creation,” I said as we watched the sun rise above the oceanic horizon. “It’s the same sun that Adam saw his very first day of existence and Moses and our parents and great-grandparents.” I was on a roll, while … More Constancy
