On the way home I saw the mother grizzly with her two cubs again. People were way to close. Luckily they stayed in their cars. A Harley came by and shared the cubs. That got mom’s attention. Thought for a minute I was going to see something that I would wish I hadn’t. Everyone gave her room and it worked out in the end.
This was the path to the amphitheater where the service was going to be.
The service was about everyone being welcomed in God’s Kingdom. Caleb gave three examples that made this message new to me. I have heard that all are welcome my entire life. Caleb’s first example was Simon the magician. Simon was clearing doing things that the message from God says not to do yet Simon was welcomed into the Kingdom. The second example was an Ethiopian eunuch. These people were not accepted by others and many times they were shunned. Yet in this example he was welcomed. Lastly he talked about Paul’s conversion. Paul was attacking the Church and killing Christians and even he was welcomed. If you are doing things against God’s will, are an outcast or even attacking Christians God still welcomes you. We have to learn this lesson and see people like God sees them and welcome them with God’s Love.
After the service I had to go do some work. Saw a large black bear on the way to Grant.
On the way home saw two grizzlies. They were chasing each other some.
Well this broke the date from last year. In 2018 the last day I saw it snow was June 1st. Well it snowed today (June 8th). Will be 25 tonight and maybe more snow. Many roads were closed in the park due to multiple inches in the higher elevations.
This is from the house in Gardiner.
We had the little round snow balls that make you think you are living inside a snow globe.
A Christian Ministry in the National Parks starts today. I am supporting the group at Canyon Village. Logan, Stahr, Katrina and Caleb did a great job.
Katrina gave a message about James 1:2 Consider it nothing but joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you fall into various trials. Be assured that the testing of your faith produces endurance 4 And let endurance have its perfect result and do a thorough work, so that you may be perfect and completely developed, lacking in nothing.
Her point was working through the daily issues and keeping your joy was training. She talked about training for a marathon. You can start with couch to 5K plans. You know the date of the marathon so you you can training and be ready for the big day. With life you don’t know when the big day will come. It will come. We all have major life impacts. Her point was training and trusting in God with the daily issues prepare us for be able to stay in Him for the big ones.
I hope to support them every Sunday at Canyon. If you want to know more about this ministry you can go to acmnp.com.
