Mountains are Incredible

    Mountains are incredible.
    They're very majestic to look at, especially when you're up close to them. Thick, solid rock with ridges and carving-like crevices formed over time by wind and water, it's like a gigantic, natural sculpture. From far away, those chiseled crevices can hold snow that covers a mountain and makes it look like sugar or flour has been dusted on it; and when rain hits a mountain, water can run down like small streams.
    Then there's the very fact that mountains are huge. Isn't there just something about large and tall things that's impressive? The Empire State Building, Big Ben, the Great Wall of China; these landmarks are incredibly tall structures that make people below look like insects, but the mountains that are even taller than them are colossal, and they can make people below seem smaller than specks! Standing up close to a mountain as massive as this can make a person feel small, but it's a good kind of small, not a bad kind. Especially when one thinks about the Creator of the mountains. The same One who made us individually also formed each and every one of the towering mountains. That concept is really interesting and awesome to think about.
    Mountains are indeed one of the Lord's most incredible masterpieces of creation. Majestic, massive, and made by the One who made us.
    Have you ever been really close to a mountain, or on one? Have you ever climbed or taken a hike up a mountain?
