AWE AND WONDER!
On Sunday, I shared a bit about my recent trip to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and the sense of awe and wonder I felt while watching liquid lava in Halemaumau Crater and flowing into the Pacific Ocean along the Puna Coast. I remember hearing people around me in various accents and languages and reminding myself that all of the religions I know about encourage their people to appreciate the awe and wonder of the universe. I can’t think of a better place to live where awe and wonder seem to be a part of our everyday experience. I invite you, wherever you are today, to pause and give thanks for the beauty of creation and the blessing of God’s love.
I look forward to seeing you in church soon!
Aloha nui!
Kahu Alan Akana
