Manuel and I went camping this past weekend and it was awesome. We really needed a rest, which was evident from the large amount of sleep we got. We ate, slept, and read, the perfect vacation! I loved getting up in the coolness of the morning and starting breakfast, pancakes, bacon, eggs, with some starbucks coffee. It was so relaxed and peaceful.


Manuel and I would sit down to eat and then do our morning devotions and watch the chipmunks and squirrels race around our campsite in search for food and hiding places for their newly found lunch. I didn’t think them so cute, however, after I woke up from a nap and found more than half our bread eaten and a huge hole in the bag. That night we had burgers wrapped in bacon instead of bread.

Watching the lake, the stars, and the little furry animals, I realized again why God really does deserve so much praise. Romans 1 :20 says “for since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities-his eternal power and divine nature-have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.”
