I like to take the opportunity to talk to my Lord, Jesus Christ. It's easy to take Him for granted, but when I get out there in His creation to witness the many marvels of nature, it helps me to realize how truly great He is. You get to see the natural balance of the evolving seasons and changes in weather and how it all comes full circle year by year. Seeing nature in its complexity only confirms my belief in a great and wonderous God. I think prayer is an effective and uplifting way to spend my silent hours. It's what I like to do, and I'm proud to serve Him.
