We just got back from our adventure at Victoria falls, and all I can say is wow! Victoria falls is amazingly beautiful!! I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything so beautiful. When you’re walking down to the bridge, all you hear is a deafening roar from the falls, that is so loud you hear it from the parking lot. Everything directly above the falls is blanket of mist so thick you cannot see in certain places. There are rainbows and streaks of sunlight peaking out throughout the mist. It is breathtaking!
When we first walked down there we were totally dry, but by the time we were finished we were drenched from head to toe! It was amazing! Walking down there is like walking through a rainforest. A rain-like mist fell everywhere we walked, giving everything a blurry, tropical look, and causes all the plants to sparkle like diamonds in the sunlight. It literally looked, sounded and felt like a rainforest.
Directly in front of the falls is a small bridge that goes across the river. Crossing this bridge you get absolutely drenched from the heavy downpour of the falls. The bridge is covered in puddles, and mini water falls that run down the steps. Standing in the center of this bridge you cannot see a thing to your left because of the falls, but when you look over the right side, you can see clear to the bottom of the falls where it joins up with the river below. It was absolutely incredible!
Getting to see one of God’s wonders, which also happens to be one of the 7 wonders of the world was such an incredible experience. Looking over the rail at all the water that was pouring down into the river below, I was in awe of God. To thing that He knows exactly how many drops of water are coming down that fall every day of every month of every year, is an amazing thought. Then to go even further, and to realize that in spite of all that water emptying into the river below, the top part of the river never runs dry. God is daily on the watch to make sure that even something like that doesn’t happen. How amazing is that?! Or more to the point, how amazing is our God!!
Let us evaluate this more, God is not only the Creator of the universe, the Guardian of our hearts, the Lover of our souls, and the Savior to the world, but He is also the Master Gardener and the Almighty River Care Taker!!! In the words of Pastor Shadrach Meshach Lockridge “That is my King!!” He is truly a One of a kind King!!! Hallelujah!!
