Reflection Questions:
Do you believe in the existence of hell?
What motivates your prayer life?
How do you understand the phrase, "Fear of the Lord"?
It was an eerie feeling as I stepped outside this morning into the smoke-filled atmosphere of Cheyenne, Wyoming. I went for a walk but I decided to cut it short because of the intensity of the smoke. The golf course was a little brighter at first this morning (pictured above), but when I arrived at Lions Park at 11:30 am (pictured below), it was obvious that conditions were deteriorating. I will have to admit that walking through the smoke around the lake made me think about some of the writings of the saints in regard to the "fires of hell." After this brief glimpse at just the irritation of the smoke, I want nothing to do with the fire portion. This serves as a solemn reminder to "turn away from sin and be faithful to the Gospel."
