					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you ever seen lenticular clouds?  I show you some.</p>
<p>Many Christians hold to a very true hope that God&#8217;s Son, Jesus Christ will return.  The scriptures say that we will all meet him in the clouds.</p>
<p>I was thinking about that a couple of months ago on a flight from Charlotte to Phoenix.  Gazing out the window, somewhere over the Mid West, I saw some awesome, majestic clouds.  I have flown many times over the years, but have never seen gigantic clouds like these.  It lasted for almost ten minutes.  They were not, however, lenticular clouds.</p>
<p>Seeing those clouds I couldn&#8217;t help but think about what it will be like when Christ does return and we all meet him in the clouds.  I wondered if the clouds on the day he does return will look like what I was seeing. Clouds always remind me that one day…</p>
<h3>Even More Spectacular</h3>
<p>Yesterday I received an email with pictures of some spectacular clouds in the state of Washington from several weeks ago. These were multiple <strong>lenticular cloud formations</strong> at Mount Rainier, near sunset, on Wednesday, September 21. I thought you might enjoy seeing some pictures.</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">If you want some scientific explanation about lenticular clouds and how they are formed, check out <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenticular_cloud" target="_blank">this link</a> at wiki.</p>
<p>So the next time you look up and see clouds in the sky, whether they are lenticular, cumulus, or whatever it was that I saw on the plane, remind yourself that someday you will meet him in the clouds.</p>
