giant

To me, Nick is a giant. 

His presence may not always be known to others but he is huge. He carries with him a gracious spirit that he pours onto others selflessly. 

On a recent hike, I was in awe of Nick. He's a leader, he's strong, gentle, bold, quiet, and lovely. His love is hard for me to understand because there's no end to it and no limitations to who receives it. 

He is a giant. 

While we were on this hike I kept thinking about my best friend, the one I viewed as a giant. My thoughts sounded like this 

"What a man. Wow I love him. He's such a good protector. If we get chased by a bear, I'm convinced we'll make it out alive cause Nick is so agile and strong. I am so lucky. How did I get him? 

He's the best." 

On our way down, I hurried ahead to turn back to take a picture of Nick standing among these huge trees. I took the picture 

and it suddenly occurred to me who is bigger. 

My King. 

My God.

My Savior.

My Creator. 

My Jesus. 

I am forever in awe of my creator.
