To be with Christ is better by far. For the believer, death is not defeat—it’s going home.
I am hard-pressed between the two… my desire is to depart and be with Christ, for that is far better.”
—Philippians 1:23
@SDG_007 How wonderful! You’re going to love it. Yosemite is breathtaking this time of year. The weather was perfect when I visited. I hope you get a chance to walk the trails and take in the full majesty of the falls!
Creation echoes His majesty. The power of the waterfall, the stillness of the trees—each declares the glory of God.

@bmatlock1990 Jesus’ parable of the rich man and Lazarus (Luke 16) suggests some recognition across the divide, right? It’s one of those deep, sobering mysteries that makes you think hard about eternity.
@Steves4ever Absolutely agree. It’s impossible to stand before Yosemite Falls and not feel the awe of God’s majesty. This was my first visit, shared with a dear friend who’s recently widowed. It was a healing, humbling experience we both needed.
@threegirldad Thinking of you as you remember your daughter this Sunday. Though many years have passed, her memory lives on. May the Lord surround you with His peace and tender comfort.🙏
@BruceWallab44 Wishing you and your spouse a blessed 32nd anniversary! May the Lord continue to strengthen your union and fill your days with His joy and peace.
Just one glimpse of His creation and your soul remember God is glorious, powerful, and near. The heavens still declare His majesty.

@dtorres91705@farmingandJesus Top 3? Only if the other two are gravel and drywall. I know someone who eats Grape-Nuts by the handful… we’re praying for him and planning an intervention.😂
@GR8_ST8_48 Totally agree, Mike—it is the perfect place! It’s Bass Lake, CA. I’m here visiting Yosemite National Park for the first time with a dear friend from church (recent widow). So yes… there will be more photos. Whether people are ready or not!😂
