Hi Everyone! Here we are for another trip to Mesa Verde. This portion is filled with many hidden treasures. Some of these ruins you...you have to look really hard to see.
This is one of my favorites. It's several layers of ruins, built into very small crevices in the rock face. Some of these go back as far as 100 feet into the mountain!
Others are just built in an area that you wouldn't expect to have homes. This one is in a canyon area, at the very end of the canyon.
Read about Mesa Verde Here: Mesa Verde National Park
Another one with layers of ruins. One in the open, on the ledge, another in the cave above it. Do you think that's a third layer just under the ledge? Looks like it might be to me.
There are some built on top of peaks. They appear to be totally vulnerable to the wind and elements.
Another beautifully crafted home, tucked into a small nook. The people were very good at what they did!
They were so confident in their work, they built right up to the cliff! I wouldn't want to live there if I were prone to sleepwalking!! That's a long way down!!
This could possibly explain where we got the idea for High Vaulted Ceilings!! :)
This one is built on the floor of the canyon, with very low ceilings.

No Need Is Too Trivial
As a father pities his children, so the Lord pities those who fear Him. Psalm 103:13
|
Several mothers of small children were sharing encouraging answers to prayer. One woman admitted that she felt selfish when she troubled God with her personal needs. "Compared with the huge global needs God faces," she explained, "my circumstances must seem trivial to Him."
Moments later, her little son pinched his fingers in a door and ran screaming to his mother. She didn't say, "How selfish of you to bother me with your throbbing fingers when I'm busy!" No, she showed him great compassion and tenderness.
As Psalm 103:13 reminds us, this is the response of love, both human and divine. In Isaiah 49, God said that even though a mother may forget to have compassion on her child, the Lord never forgets His children (v.15). God assured His people, "I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands" (v.16).
Such intimacy with God belongs to those who fear Him, and who rely on Him rather than on themselves. As that child with throbbing fingers ran freely to his mother, so may we run to God with our daily problems.
Our compassionate God doesn't neglect others to respond to your concerns. He has limitless time and love for each of His children. No need is too trivial for Him. Joanie Yoder
No heart too small, no world too wide
To feel the Master's touch;
Dear Lord of all, we give Thee thanks
For Thou hast sent so much. Michael
God bears the world's weight on His shoulder, and He holds His children in the palm of His hand.
