Visiting God's Creation

Last week we went to Moab, Arches National Park, and Dead Horse State Park in Utah. We took a few days away with my brother and sister-in-law, Randy and Pam. It was a marvelous time, I wish it could have been longer.
       Recently I re-read parts of C.S. Lewis' essays in God in the Dock and was struck by his statement about creation. It relates well to the experience we had in Utah.
       "Because God created the Natural - invented it out of His love and artistry - it demands our reverence."
Here is what Lewis is talking about:
Sunset in Arches National Park, June 14th.
Moon rise facing east at same time as sunset photo above.
Dead Horse State Park - that's the Colorado River snaking its
way through the canyon. Breath-taking views of creation!
