Finding Joy in Simplicity: A Tiny Church
Constantly searching for views that take my breath away
It is easy to get lost in these tiny squares of amazing mountain views and say it takes our breath away. Or of a a waterfall with just the right amount of sun flare cascading through the water and say the same. I am guilty as charged for doing just that, but those moments are far and few between, and for some they don't ever happen.
I have found a love for finding joy in the every day moments. Take for example the first picture it has 3 of my favorite things in it:
◾My husband
◾My kids
◾A cross that represents my faith in God
The second image has another 3 of my favorite things in it:
◾My kids smiling
◾A place to have quiet time with God
◾A new location we discovered
We came across a Tiny Church in Yuma. It is in the middle of a working farm with dirt road access, about 20 minutes away from town. The church seats a carload of people and receive thousands of visitors every year from around the world. What started as a farmers way to honor his deceased wife has turned into a roadside stop that is a quite place to reflect.
This Tiny Church took my breath away with the beauty of the simplicity of it all. Surrounded by dirt and farmland, only enough room for one family at a time, and the kids joy when they could stand at the pulpit. It is moments like these that bring joy to my heart.
Of course, we love to travel and see nature at its finest, but don't forget to find joy in small moments too. It makes life so much better and fulfilling.
