Awesome!

This morning, while on my daily walk, I felt at one with God.. I felt extremely happy and completely fulfilled. After twelve days of record breaking cold weather in Florida, the early morning sun’s warmth put rhythm in my stride and seemed to give new beauty to the streets of Summertree. I felt as if I had been climbing up through an overcast sky, and suddenly at that moment, had broken out on top!

It caused me to recall, from my days as an Air Force pilot, one particular dark and cloudy morning. I had just taken-off from Gore Field, Montana in a P-63 King Cobra in route to Fairbanks, Alaska. I was eager to go, but the usual excitement was dampened by the dreary sky above..... Until, I finally broke out above the overcast and saw the sun. It was very nice and pleasant to see the clean white tops of the clouds, remembering their dirty look underneath.

After taking time to look around for a few minutes, soaking up the beauty of the sun shining on the white puffy clouds and the brightness of the blue sky above, I was thrilled and in awe, and casually said, ‘Well God, here I am looking at the world the way you see it!"   He clicked his mike button twice, to acknowledge that I had spoken — that He had heard!
