Clarity

Sometimes we can see spiritual matters with awesome clarity - like the Olympic Mountains on a clear day. Other times clouds obscure the mountains - like the mist of darkness on the path in Lehi's dream - or the murky mirror Paul mentions in 1 Corinthians 13:12 

God is always there. When we feel our view is obscured, we need to do those things that make the clouds disappear and reestablish the clarity - worship, obey, pray, serve, study and ponder scriptures.

On a clear day this is the glorious vista from our street. Downtown Kirkland is at the bottom of the hill. That's Lake Washington and Seattle is on the other side of the lake. The snow-covered Olympic Mountains are in the distance.
