Oh Lord, my God, when I in awesome wonder consider all the works thy hands have wrought...Then sings my soul.
One of my favorite things to do was hike. These pictures were taken on a trip to Utah. My Dad and I usually backpacked in the Sierra Nevadas, closer to home in California.
Being so close to the raw materials that God made for man to use - rock, wood, water - helps me to put my problems and worries into their proper perspective.
I love the sound of a mountain stream, the smell of a meadow green with young grass. And it provides plenty of time to be with people I care about, without distractions.
When I think that God, my Father in Heaven, made this mountain scene, and this world itself, I thank Him. There's a drive to creativity that God built into us, too. Brother Dieter F. Uchtdorf talks about this creativity in this link to a video called Create (It is 1:54). God loves me so much that he made an enormous Earth for me and my whole family to come and live on. And he loves me so perfectly that he made this Earth very, very beautifully.
