Inspired

Last weekend I spent a relaxing weekend in Bright at a dear friend's who re-married a couple of years ago after being widowed for many years. We went for a drive to Mount Buffalo National Park, though didn't go to the top as there had been a mud slide the day before. Having come back from Europe a few months ago, it has been very easy to feel that Australia has so little to offer in the way of old buildings, given the young age of our country from when it was settled by the Europeans.  But seeing the beautiful waterfalls, I felt that it was God who inspired those artists to create amazing structures, however back home, God has actually created these natural wonders to inspire us to seek him. I was a wonderful realization and I hope I remember this whenever I feel that our country somehow doesn't measure-up, or if I am inclined to make comparisons between Australia and Europe!

We were also very fortunate not to get flooded in over the weekend as there is very serious flooding around our country at present. The amount of water we saw as we drove home on Sunday was something I have never seen before.


Enjoy these photos.
