You learn things about God on the mountain top that are different from the things you learn in the valley —
On the mountain top you see Him as the God of all glory;
In the valley you see Him as the God of all comfort.On the mountain top you see Him as the Lord who reigns;
In the valley you see Him as the Shepherd who walks beside you.On the mountain top you see Him as the Judge of all the earth;
In the valley you see Him as the God of all mercies.On the mountain top you see Him as the exalted King;
In the valley you see Him as the suffering servant.On the mountain top you see Him as the Lord God omnipotent;
In the valley you see Him as your loving Heavenly Father.
“Show me Your ways, O Lord; Teach me Your paths.” Psalm 25:4 (NKJV)
