All of us would like life to be smooth, but the fact is that the life we are given is full of upheaval. Ken Gire uses the dramatically diverse terrain of Colorado as a metaphor for exploring the work of heaven - to make everything beautiful in its time.

Publisher Description

The terrain of Colorado forms a metaphor for life as acclaimed writer Ken Gire reflects upon ? the smooth, even terrain of eastern Colorado in contrast to the wild, uncertain, jagged terrain of western Colorado. The majestic, awe-inspiring mountains of western Colorado were born out of the most terrifying eruptions. And that is the unrelenting work of heaven, to make everything beautiful in its time. ? All of us would like life to be smooth with no upheavals. But the fact is that our lives are anything but. Our lives are full of upheaval, for that is life as we are given it. Gire looks at the beauty that is the result of these upheavals.
