There was something precious about the early morning when I woke up with the crescendo of the waves and the chirping from the Emperor Geese near by. The skies were painted in the most heartwarming hues of soft pastels. The air was warm and I felt so blessed to be where I was. This place is so beautiful and keeps me coming back for more, time after time. I never thought I could love the Puget Sound so much after moving away when I was 10 years young. Somehow, this place has come into my life again so gracefully.

Because it is Sunday, I also just was reminded of my need to study God’s word this morning and sing myself a little song. Some words of Amazing Grace seemed fitting for the way I felt.

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.’

How sweet the sound...
