The Grand Canyon. Mount Kilimanjaro. The Fjords of Norway. The endless dunes of the Sahara.

Our planet is filled with places that invoke a sense of awe; areas that are beautiful, majestic, and terrifying all at once.

Humanity has felt awe since time began - however, awe has only recently been acknowledged by our contemporary world as an emotion.

It's not just any emotion either - awe has been shown to enhance our well-being. Awe is good for us.

Awe adjusts our perspective, and helps us get "outside" of ourselves. It puts us in our place, in relation to something bigger, something more wonderful.

Awe can be anywhere. Awe can be anything. And the Christain scriptures tell us we can get close up and personal with the ultimate source of awe - the God of all creation - on a daily basis.

What are we waiting for?

"You care for the land and water it;
 you enrich it abundantly.
The streams of God are filled with water
 to provide the people with grain,
 for so you have ordained it.
You drench its furrows and level its ridges;

 you soften it with showers and bless its crops.

You crown the year with your bounty,

and your carts overflow with abundance.
The grasslands of the wilderness overflow;

 the hills are clothed with gladness.
The meadows are covered with flocks

 And the valleys are mantled with grain;
 they shout for joy and sing."

Psalm 65: 9-13
