Visiting the Grand Canyon from a different perspective!!

 

 

               

                 Earlier this month, I went on a tour of the Grand Canyon with my family. The tour we took was with Canyon Ministries which gives guided tours of Grand Canyon from a Christian perspective. Our tour started at Williams where we boarded a bus with our tour guides, and drove to see the South Rim of the Grand Canyon. It was cold and snowy on the top of the South Rim, but the tour bus was warm and cozy. We saw Yavapai Point which is the main overlook of the Grand Canyon, and Desert Point which overlooks the Colorado River and the desert next to it. It was a fun, entertaining, and educational tour. My favorite thing on the tour was experiencing the awe of the Grand Canyon while learning God's word from our tour guide, John.  I learned from John about the geology of the canyon. He talked about how Noah's Flood laid down the rock layers and the bursting of a post-Flood lake (not the Colorado River) that carved the canyon. It is truly an awesome place that speaks of the amazing holiness and grace of God!

But God remembered Noah and all the wild animals and the livestock that were with him in the ark, and he sent a wind over the earth, and the waters receded. Genesis 8:1
