I was on a 14 mile marathon training run last week very early in the morning. The sun wasn’t even out yet. A couple of nights before Amber and I ate at the Tower of the Americas for a much needed date night. We had a blast and wrapped up our date by seeing the sunset from 750 feet above San Antonio. It was beautiful. I was reminded of God’s beauty in creation that night. Here is a sunset panorama I snapped with the trusty iphone:
Back to the run…I was looking forward to watching the sunrise as I ran. Just as the sun began to break the horizon, a doe ran right in front of me. She was so close that I could have slapped her back as she went by, no joke…I would have smacked into her if I hadn’t seen her. And she was in no hurry.
It felt like God was saying to me “you’re waiting for the sunrise. You’ve seen tons of sunrises. I have something even better…you just wait.”
I spent the rest of my run thinking about Heaven. And all I got is this: we have NO IDEA how incredible its going to be. You just wait…it gets better.
