Scanning Youtube, I see about a billion videos telling you what to see on a visit to Switzerland. Well, I've been all over that country and can tell you that if you don't visit the Gornergrat, you have really missed it. Here's the view I'm talking about.
At the Gornergrat you'll find this plaque when you exit your gondola:
No truer words were ever spoken. The sign reads:
_________________________
Great and wonderful
are your works,
Lord, Almighty God (Rev. 15:3).
_________________________
Mountains raised high
their Creator praise,
snow-capped peaks,
rocks, high treetops
praise God's majesty!
There's always a breathtaking view from a mountaintop, and all that glory goes to God. We must remember that this is all his handiwork. This is beauty and majesty that God created. Just think: A mountain top experience is a taste of what eternal life has in store for us in heaven. I'm sure I can't even imagine.
None of us knows what the rest of our journey on this earth will be like. I do know that it will not be an easy route for any of us. For now, let us keep climbing with Jesus. Let us praise God on the mountain. Let us search for his beauty in the midst of our circumstances. Let us wave a palm branch and proclaim that victory is of the Lord!
