We spent about a week in Estes Park, Colorado. What an amazing place! Estes Park is at about 7,500 feet above see level and the place where we were staying was close to another 500 feet up. I knew that I was in need of some serious exercise, but climbing the steps at 8,000 feet makes it additionally clear. I never thought that I would have to catch my breath after a flight of stairs. Unbelievable.
The air was thin and clear. The stars were beautiful and bright. The wildlife was close and fascinating. It was a great time of rest and relaxation. But we left just in time because the next day a suburb of Denver got 3 feet of snow...on the first day of Spring!

Welcome back,
ReplyDeleteYour take on the elder brother is one that I had never heard before. Yet, it has a real ring of truth to it. It easy to continue to work and work at church because there are some rewards but they become a substitute for the relationship. I would not be surprised to find that most of us have been there but are either afraid to admit ot to ourselves or to others.
I think it would be a scary thing if we all quit doing what we are doing because we don't know how toget out of it but I think it would be a fabulous experience both for individuals and for the church as a whole.
Does anyone think we are willing or ready for that?
