I was hiking in the Swiss Alps, and I got to the top of the mountain...

 Here’s a story from one of my personal heart healing sessions.

I asked the Lord to remind me of a happy memory filled with joy and appreciation. I remembered a time when I was hiking in the Swiss Alps, and I got to the top of the mountain where there was a beautiful garden and benches to survey the magnificent view below.

Jesus was sitting there on the bench with me, just taking in all of the beauty and pointing out the little blue flowers He knew I would love. 

We sat peacefully for a while.  I was shifting a little bit from the heavy borrowed backpack I had on, and He asked,  Would you like me to take that for you?  Yes! I responded.

He gently slipped it off, and I figured He would take out some of the things that weren’t supposed to be in there, perhaps lighten it up a little. Instead, with the twinkle in his eye, he reached behind a rock and pulled out a brand new, perfectly fitted backpack just for me. 

Here’s a backpack that has every piece of equipment you need, and it's not one ounce heavier than you are supposed to carry.

I looked to the valley below to see multitudes of people in distress, their hands outstretched for help. It was overwhelming. Don’t worry, I am going with you. We will help them, and you can come back up here with me anytime you want to.

This is my New Vista, a new perspective on the mountain top and the valley....and the journey between both of them with the Lord!
