Well, we're in Flagstaff!!

Well today has been a GREAT day!! I turned on the radio and listened to KLOVE christian radio basically all day today, and THAT was a God-send. I kept asking God the whole way.."please Lord, Please...let me know your here today..." Almost challenging Him.."show yourself, I DARE YOU!!!" And boy did He...through so many songs today he did. As Jonathan and I drove through the Petrified Wood National Forest, and the Painted Desert, He continued to reveal Himself. I couldn't help but sing His praises all day. How some people see these sights on a daily basis and think that God does NOT exist, is beyond me...completely beyond me. Then in the car, continuing on I-40, I was in awe of My Creator...I could have sat on the hood of my car all day and just looked at this amazing world He has created just for us, and his glory, and on comes the radio...."how great thou art...in awesome wonder...how great thou art...", now try to tell me God didn't accept my challenge and "show himself!" Then challenging Him once again, praying that He would prove to me that we are supposed to be going to Immanuel Baptist Church, and again though song..."Immanuel, God With Us" from mercyme comes playing on the radio, just confirming my thoughts that we are right where we were supposed to be right that very moment....talk about standing in amazement. I just pray that tomorrow, God will continue to not let us miss an opportunity to praise him, and glorify Him while we finish our last leg of the trip...I pray that I glorify Him EVERY SINGLE INCH OF EVERY SINGLE MILE!!!!
