An Awesome Mountain

                                               Mount Rainer what an awesome site you are

Every day I get to see one of the top mountains in the world or at least number one or two in North America in Mount Rainier.

One of the roads I drive on my way home shows Mount Rainier close and personal. There are days when it is cloudy where Rainier isn’t able to be seen but most days can see it partially anyway. I feel so fortunate to see it.

My niece Leslie will be visiting in ten days coming from Virginia. She will be staying for a couple days before heading to Eugene, Oregon for her best friend’s wedding. She figured since she would be out west to stop in for a couple days to see me and her grandmother.

The plan right now would be to take a day and go to Mount Rainier. It takes about two hours or so depending on stops to arrive at the summit of Mt. Rainier. We will spend a few hours walking around see the view before returning home. The nice thing about going to visit Mt. Rainier is doing so in one day.

Jesus Christ said we have faith of a mustard seed we can move a mountain. Could you imagine anyone of us moving Mt. Rainier. I am sure we wouldn’t want to even if we had the faith.

Jesus Christ purpose in saying we can have the faith to move mountains we all have obstacles in our lives which should and can be moved out of the way. The key is do we have the faith and are we willing to move them.

We are often used to having the obstacles around so much we don’t even think about moving them. These obstacles can be certain behaviors we have always lived with or they can be our poor health.

Let’s begin with the faith we have no matter the size and move the obstacles aside. We can use this as our purpose right now; not only in our lives but those around us.  

Although I can enjoy seeing Mt. Rainier on a daily basis all these other mountains (obstacles) will be nice to remove.  I will let you know how things go with my visit with Leslie.
