Everyone needs a place to go to be alone with God. Mine is at the entrance to the Chimney Tops trail in the Great Smokey Mountains National Park. I am blessed to live close enough to go there whenever I feel the need to to be especially close to my maker. Sadly, this trail has been closed for a while due to the wildfire damage. It is open again and I am happy to say that God still joins me there. I cannot explain what happens to me when I see this place. It is my ideal church setting. I can talk freely and God responds with absolute beauty that demonstrates to me that he is listening. I praise Him for being the kind of God who cares to let me be that close to Him. I took many photos the day I was there. I am still trying to process all He revealed. I will share one image that spoke of His sovereignty and power.

Praise God from whom all blessings flow.
