Butler Gulch

Butler Gulch is quite nice draped in snow. At the top, up near the Continental Divide last week, we enjoyed a different kind of view. We also enjoyed a different kind of fellowship. There is nothing quite like getting to know a fellow believer while shoeing in the mountains!

"Put your confidence in God; remain quiet where He has placed you."
Ecclesiastes 11:22

Butler Gulch

Our first outing of the year took us up Butler Gulch and included snowshoes, nice weather, and happy people. The biggest challenge was getting everyone in the photo. Everyone went at their own pace and spread out a little since there were 15 of us hiking and talking all the way up the hill. Afterward, we met at Beau Jo's for pizza and enjoyed even more fellowship together.

Walking in the quiet snow covered forest, I thought about what a wonderful gift God has given us in the outdoors. I remembered Romans 8:32 which says, "He who spared not His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not, with Him, also freely give us all things?"
