3 days to see… creation

Earlier this fall I spent a week in the Olympic Rain Forest in Washington State camping and hiking with my oldest son. While everyday was beautiful, the first couple of days were filled with thoughts about all of my responsibilities. On the third day I began to take in the beauty of the rain forest. There were plants I didn’t recognize. A red frog nestled in the leaves was simply spectacular. Sitting on a hill above a creek I could see and hear different birds and the chatter of chipmunks.

Most of our life is spent thinking about how we make a difference in the world. On the third day, I became immersed in the rain forest, appreciating the difference God’s creation was bringing to me. There was a deep sense of rest as the sights and sounds of the rain forest renewed me. The time my son and I shared was full of life and new perspective.

This is what Warm Beach Camp is all about. A place to come, connect, and be renewed.
