Today we hiked up Lions Gulch trail to the old homesteads, long abandoned for 75 years or more. The hike was delightful and the sun was shining in the morning on the way up. On the way down, it started to snow a little, but that's the Colorado we all know and love, in the high country. We had a nice lunch here in these rocks and enjoyed some great fellowship together.
On our hike up the trail we ran into some deer just a few feet off the trail. I got my camera out and quickly snapped this photo from the trail. Two more seconds, and they were all gone.
Below is one of the homesteads we checked out. It must have been a hard life here a hundred years ago without electricity and modern conveniences. We take so much for granted today. How many of our spiritual benefits do we take for granted? Remember, we have been blessed with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, in Christ. We are adopted as His sons to the praise of the glory of His Grace! In Him we have redemption and forgiveness, according to the riches of His Grace! We have obtained such a great inheritance and you've been sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise. When I remember these things, my gratitude and Love for God soars.
