Ok you all will probably find this creepy, but last Friday I went driving through Cave Hill Cemetery Just to make myself sound less creepy I would like to state that it is on the National Register of Historic Places, and therefore not so weird.
I love coming here! I love how peaceful and quiet and slow it is. I love the trees, and the flowers, and the lake. I love that I can think with no interruptions. I love the architecture, and the history, and the imagination.
Anyways, when I saw this sight, I felt I had to stop immediately and take a picture (even a bad one). The statue is a young girl with her back arched reaching up to the heavens and the tree in absolute perfect bloom over and behind her, ready to meet her outstretched arms--as if she was grasping heaven in her very fingertips. Her grave had the verse Psalm 19:1, "the heavens declare the glory of God and the sky above proclaims his handiwork." --A perfect verse for this picture! Yes! God's very creation points to our loving God who has saved us through Jesus!
Psalm 19:1 is not a common verse to see at a cemetery, so I felt encouraged and hopeful that this girl was possibly a believer. If she truly believed in Jesus, and confessed and repented of her sins then she is in heaven right now! The picture I took is only shadows of what is to come for believers.
That's all!
P.s. want to know what is really creepy?? You can read the "stats" on your blog (which I did not know) and people from Japan, Argentina, China, and Africa have looked at my blog. Now THAT is creepy. Unchecking Internet Search Option, now.
