This past year, my family took a vacation to Aspen, Colorado. As we were standing on top of a mountain, taking in the absolutely breathtaking scenery, my dad made a comment.
"You know, I feel so much closer to God here than at the temple." I couldn't help but agree with this statement. I'm sorry for starting another religion thread, but I don't think I saw a topic like this. What do you feel? Do you feel more spiritual reading out of a prayer book at a church or temple, or just being surrounded by nature? |

I kinda believe in both. I feel closest to God when I see what he has created but I also feel close to him when I read his word and learn about him.
 However, I would say I'm probably feeling more closest then anything when I pray because prayer is speaking to God.
