I'm currently living up in Juneau, Alaska working as a Tour Guide, and Bus driver. This is my 3rd summer up here in the great land, and I must admit that it's quite the job. My days are often never the same, but I get to work outside. And i'm always with different people every few hours from all over the world. It's quite exciting! The days are often long though, and the tours can be repetitive, but overall I love my job. I am looking forward to returning to bellingham though. I miss the warm weather and the people I love of bellingham, and also knowing my schedule. I miss not being able to plan ahead. It's hard to do with this job when we find out our schedule the night before and it always changes. I'm not complaining though. I get to take hundreds of people everyday to see glaciers, mountains and oceans As I'm driving there, I often can't help but rejoyce to the Lord above for the beauty he's created. And how he created eyes for us to see it. And a brain to process what we're seeing. I could think all day even about that whole process. I sit in wonder of his glory why my passengers are off exploring the glacier and I can't stop thinking about how if this is "beauty" and sweet to my soul...how much better will heaven be? How will we even process beauty in heaven? It's crazy. I love that God has created a world so big and awe inspiring that we will probably wonder about this until our lives here cease. It's good though, because if we could have everything figured out what would the joy in living be?
these are my thoughts today.
my prayer today is that we all look up and around us. realizing that god loves us enough to create beauty and a way for the beauty to touch us. his love for us is sooo deep!
