South Silver Falls, Oregon
You might need to enlarge this picture to see the people standing behind this waterfall. Though I love this picture, where they're standing is the best place to feel the mist, hear the sound and enjoy the full majesty of this waterfall.
Silver Falls State Park is only few miles away from my father-in-law. Needless to say, I've made a few trips with my camera to this park. The nationally recognized Canyon Trail will take you to ten different waterfalls. The highest (pictured here) is South Falls that descends 177 feet. The smallest, Drake Falls cascades a mere 27 feet. You can even walk behind four of these waterfalls.
There is something humbling about getting underneath a waterfall. You cannot control it. You accept it for what it is, and feel the refreshment like nowhere else. Even on a hot day, standing behind a waterfall of this magnitude is refreshing.
"So place yourself under God's authority." James 4:7 God's Word to the Nations
What will your life be different you see submission to God like standing behind a waterfall, feeling his refreshment and knowing his protection?
Believe me, the experience from behind the waterfall is much better than seeing it only at a distance. So it is with God. Being under his authority is much better than viewing him only from a distance.
Under God's authority is where life is truly known.
