Mountains

I spent last week on vacation with my family in the mountains. The mountains for us are incredible. We love the cool air the walks and a change of scenery from the desert floor. While away i feel the freedom to be some what mentally empty, to refresh. When I get home though I tend to reflect on what it is I learned. This year as I think about our vacation I am struck by the thought of Mountains. Mountains in the Bible have some amazing imagery. Noah and the Ark, Abraham and Isaac, Moses and the 10 commandments, Elijah and the prophets of Baal, Jesus and the sermon on the mount, and Jesus at Calvary. The wonderful thought of what God has accomplished on these mountains reminds me of His faithfulness to Save. Each of these moments is a picture of how God is actively saving His people. His salvation is incredible, He is the only one who saves. Each day he is actively saving us, he is keeping us until His plan is accomplished. What is more amazing is the fact that he has saved us for all eternity, that we would be His! These mountain tops are everyday, the question is, are you willing to notice the mountain top salvation God is giving you right now?
