New Mexico Retreat

As I write this blog, I am in the mountains of New Mexico surrounded by snow, sunshine, tall Pines and Aspens, and it's a refreshing 30 degrees. Thanks to the generosity and servants heart of a few wonderful friends, we were able to come to this beautiful place for the price of gas only. We are truly blessed. Yesterday my girls and I were able to hike about 3 miles into the forest. Within a half a mile we were standing on top of a mountain looking over deep snowy valleys, and mountain peaks that were miles and miles away. I t is easy to see the handiwork of God from high on a mountain top, but Oswald Chambers reminds us to look for God in the commonplace; the every day activities and occurences, He's There...and you might miss Him if your looking past Him. We are having such a relaxing time. Today we will go hiking again and tomorrow we will attend one of the local worship services. Cathy's health has been really good. Thank you all for your prayers and support as we are away for just a few more days. You are always in our hearts no matter where we are.
David, Cathy, and the Gurlzzzzz
