Lessons from the trees and sky

Lessons from God’s creation and his written word are all around us!

More photos from our train day.   A fun surprise to read these markers at the landmark trees at the Snoqualmie Train Museum in Washington.

Western Red Cedar – know as “The Tree of Life” by indigenous peoples of this area. (top)

For by him 
were all things created, 

that are in heaven, 
and that are in earth, 

visible and invisible, 
whether they be thrones, 
or dominions, or 
principalities, or powers: 

all things were created 
by him, 
and for him: And he is 
before all things, and 

by him all things consist.  

Colossians 1:16-17

For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse.  Romans 1:20
