1. READ What Gives Jason Fresh Perspective
“I experience the beauty of God in outdoor places that are connected to meaningful memories where I have been. Like jumping off a large boulder into a crystal clear river with a friend in Yosemite National Park. Swimming with whale sharks off the Yucatán Peninsula. Picnicking with my family on a beach at Pictured Rocks National Park. Backpacking around North Manitou Island. I’m in awe of outer space, but I’m often more drawn into God‘s presence in places where I can touch and feel the beauty of creation.”

Father, hallowed be your name! My heart cries out with the psalm writer: O Lord, what a variety of things you have made! In wisdom you have made them all (Psalm 104:24). I give you praise Father for the beauty and variety of outdoor places you have made! And the meaningful memories that you’ve allowed us to experience there. Open my eyes to your awe and wonder and presence in my life today. Amen.

Whale sharks are the largest fish in the world - growing up to 65 feet (19 meters) long! By the way, that’s longer than the length of a school bus or a semi trailer! And yet whale sharks are completely gentle giants that pose no threat to humans.
