Encountering the Divine
The Bible reminds us of the awe-inspiring power of God, who “forms the mountains, creates the wind, and reveals His thoughts to mortals” (Amos 4:13). This incredible display of might is exactly what one woman, Sarah, experienced in a life-changing moment.
A Journey of Discovery
Sarah, a talented musician from Eastern Europe, had always been drawn to traditional religion. However, when she visited her family in the United States, they introduced her to a personal relationship with Christ. Despite their efforts to explain the concept of grace and God’s love, Sarah struggled to grasp it. Her family decided to take her on a journey to experience the beauty of their new home, hoping it would help her understand.
Nature’s Splendor
Together, they explored famous sites, marveling at wildlife in urban neighborhoods, deep gorges carved through ancient rock, and breathtaking mountain vistas. Each Sunday, they attended a different church, exposing Sarah to various forms of Christian worship. The pièce de résistance was a trip to one of the country’s highest peaks, towering over 14,000 feet above sea level.
A Mountaintop Epiphany
As Sarah stood at the summit, surrounded by clouds above and below, she was overcome with emotion. With arms outstretched, she exclaimed, “Oh, this is the God you’re talking about!” In that instant, God revealed Himself to her in a way that resonated deeply with her soul. Sarah opened herself up to His love, and her life was forever changed.
A New Path Unfolds
Sarah’s mountaintop experience was a turning point, as she began to understand the true nature of God’s love. Her family had shown her the beauty of creation, but it was God who used that moment to draw her into a personal relationship with Him. This encounter would be the catalyst for Sarah’s journey of faith, one that would shape her future and inspire others.
