Nacogdoches County

We didn't take any pictures today, sometimes we just need to enjoy what God has for us and its between you and Him. One of the reasons we are taking this trip is that God created all the beauty in the world and He invites us to enjoy it. If you built a playset in your yard for your kids wouldn't you enjoy watching them play and if they never went out on it, wouldn't that be sad. Jesus told us about a man who prepared a banquet and invited people, they said they were too busy working and didn't come, that is sad.
We rode through Angelina National Forest today. The smells and the sounds were nice. The pines are so straight and tall. I thought about one of my favorite children's stories THE THREE TREES.
"The third little tree looked down into the valley below where busy men and women worked in a busy town. “I don’t want to leave the mountain top at all. I want to grow so tall that when people stop to look at me, they’ll raise their eyes to heaven and think of God. I will be the tallest tree in the world.” "
Spoiler alert that is not what happened; but what that tree did get to to was so much better. I encourage you to google it.Read more
