Volcan Fuego, approximately 20 miles from us, has been extremely active lately. We have had the privilege to watch it from our rooftop. It's absolutely beautiful with lava flowing down the mountain side.
Three nights ago, with Joseph sleeping soundly in bed and the other kids dressed in their jammies, we packed them up in the car and drove 10 miles closer to get a better view. We gave the kids a mini candy cane and told them to pretend we were looking at Christmas lights. They agreed it was even better than a light show and we sat on the rooftop of the car and watched the Fuego in awe.
Sadly, we rarely take time to stop and be silent and just wonder at His mighty creation. Watching Fuego reminded us all of God's huge power. Worthy is He. Psalm 46:10, "Be still and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted on the earth!"
My ipod doesn't take very good pictures so I stole these from two friends. Photo credit goes to Michael Watkins and Joaquin Aragon.
