Cave Thunder (Day 2 From. Cleansing Thoughts)

  That night, as I was sitting alone, studying the rocks I had purchased on our trip, and trying to get the experience out of my mind. But no matter what I did I couldn’t erase from my memory what I experienced and the effect it had on me. We’ve been is several caves and all of them turned out the lights at sometime on the tour, but nothing like this has ever happened before. After awhile I heard a gentle whisper of the Holy Spirit ‘the narrow path.’ All of us are on an eternal road and at some point we will have to make a decision, the Word puts it this way, “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.” (Matthew 7:13-14, NKJV).

I like seeing the different types of formations and the way their lighting brings out the natural beauty. Within the caverns, one’s imagination can open a world of stone figures that can only be matched in the cloud formations above.

You feel the emptiness of standing their completely alone, afraid to move or even breath. The darkness is so heavy you find it difficult to feel, let alone move, your arms and legs, it sort of like being isolating you even from yourself. The silence becomes deafening as the coldness of the cave wraps you in a shroud.Seconds seem like an eternity as you feel alienated within the aloneness...
