How beautiful

I was on camping programme with students when we decided to take a walk into the woods leading to one of the highiest mountains in the area. We walked through rough, thorns sticking to every part of us but we kept going. At times we had to literally crawl on our knees in order to get though the thickets.

We crossed over the small but threatening fast flowing stream. Some of the students needed to be encouraged at times asking them to hold on to the leaders' hands. It was exciting though painful. For some it was a time of testing and endurance. We finally got through the bush yet there was another challenge; climbing up the mountain.

Obviously the route was one of going round to avoid steep gradiant.

With encouragement and determination we moved on till to the top. Everyone began to sing and dance rejoicing some shouting and others screaming all with joy and gladness. Why was all this jubilation?

It was beautiful.

The fact of finishing the journey was good enough reason to shout Haleluah. Above all the view was just awesome and beautiful. The cool breeze, birds singing by in the shade the bushes and the echos of the resounding music. I had to stop the jubilation because it could have gone on and on.

You might be going through situations but be reminded it will soon be over. Times of refreshing are just about to start. You will be singing and dancing in jubilation.

So take courage.
