What a Creation!!

Last weekend I went up north with my family and we stayed in Two Harbors. Let's just say that God is almost never more evident then when I'm out in His wonderful Creation and northern Minnesota displays what He did perfectly. It was so beyond gorgeous I still can't get over it! Here are some pictures from my trip!

 Isaiah 40:31- But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

 Matthew 6:33- But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

Psalm 37:4- Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart.
(P.S. I really love this verse.)

How could I not smile when everything is so beautiful and my Lord is so good!

Philippians 4:13- I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. 

 
... Including catching a fish in my mom's case!

Lake Superior 

It was so crazily calm that morning we went fishing! 

Gooseberry Falls State Park! 

Waterfalls 

More gorgeous Creation

Psalm 118:24- This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.
(P.P.S. This one too!)

Super crazy beautiful and crazy high up! 

 Deuteronomy 31:6- Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.

Another water fall!

Proverbs 18:10- The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.

We found some giant lawn chairs across from where we ate lunch! I felt so little! haha

The typical, wonderful view all weekend (:

The view from the Split Rock Lighthouse

And there it is! 

And this is where the keepers would live with their family.

Psalm 34:8- O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusts in him.

1 Corinthians 13:13- So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love. 

Doesn't it look like the ocean?

And there's the lighthouse from below!

Isaiah 12:2- Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the Lord Jehovah is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation.

Psalm 51:10- Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
(This is the verse on my purity ring too! Wonderful verse.)

Proverbs 3: 5-6- Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not unto your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.

Psalm 37:5- Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.

Isn't it just delightful? On the first night we got there and we went to an old lighthouse and walked right by the Lake (it's the first picture) and I felt like my brain was going to just like, I don't know, become overloaded or something because of all the stunning-ness (Yes that's not a word but oh well. It fits.) that's all around me! I mean sometimes I just can't believe just how wonderful God created everything. It's surreal. the more beauty of Creation I see, the more I love God and appreciate just how wonderful He is and definitely is majesty. I could not even come close to making a place as beautiful as Earth. Even the clouds are lovely! I just looking up at the sky and admiring how grand everything is. Take some time to admire the works of our Creator! It's quite something (; 

Have a blessed day because you are a blessing!!

  1. Sorry about some of the font having a white background. It makes it sort of hard to read. If anyone knows how to set the background color to nothing on Blogger that would be so extremely helpful because I'm a little lost on that. Thank you!!
