As I hiked into and through the William O Douglas Wilderness and Spray Park in Mt Rainier National Park, my heart was continually lifted up by the glorious Creation the Lord has blessed us with. The moments of sheer, overwhelming beauty pushed the tiredness away from my aging body. Spiritually, at least, I was lift up like an eagle–and at least my mind could hike and not grow weary.
Thankfulness, gratitude for His Blessings, filled me. It was good to be in His “spaces”–vast skies and tall mountains as well as small wildflowers and flowing meadows.
