In the early morning hours of May 18, 1980, the pristine scenery around Washington's Mount St. Helens was shattered by a powerful explosion that devastated its north slope. The eruption of a landmark mountain had begun.In the aftermath, amid the rivers of mud, blankets of ash, and eerie quiet, scientists made a startling discovery: nature was bringing life out of death, reclaiming from the destruction a teeming colony of plant and animal life. Most amazing of all, the geological upheavals had recreated the processes of old that had carved out such marvels as the Grand Canyon.Today, the site stands as a testament to the power of God, who upholds all of creation. In His infinite wisdom, He has shown the modern science of geology that the earth is much, much younger than many suspected.
