Because Iceland is situated on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, it is basically on top of two tectonic plates and has thirty active volcanic systems running through the island. I found that to be a little scary, but at the same time very fascinating. There are so many verses in the Bible where God talks about mountains that they have always intrigued me.
"Before the mountains were born,
before You gave birth to the earth and the world,
from beginning to end,
You are God."
Psalm 90:2 (NLT)
"For the Lord is the One who shaped the mountains."
Amos 4:13a (NLT)
"The mountains quake
in the presence of the Lord."
Judges 5:5a (NLT)
"The mountains melt like wax beneath His feet
and flow into the valleys
like wax in a fire
like water pouring down a hill."
Micah 1:4 (NLT)"
For the mountains may move,
and the hills disappear,
but even then My faithful love for you will remain.
'My covenant of blessings will never be broken',
says the Lord who has mercy on you."
Isaiah 54:10 (NLT)
"I look to the mountains---
does my help come from there?
My help comes from the Lord
who made Heaven and earth!
Psalm 121: 1 (NLT)
"How beautiful on the mountains
are the feet of the messenger
who brings good news,
the good news of peace and salvation,
the news that the God of Israel reigns!"
Isaiah 52:7 (NLT)
"Jesus told them,
'I tell you the truth,
if you have faith,
even as small as a mustard seed,
you will say to this mountain,
'Move from here to there,'
and it will move.
Nothing would be impossible.
Matthew 17:20 (NLT)
"In the last days,
the mountain of the Lord's house
will be the highest of all---
the most important place on earth.
It will be raised above the other hills,
and the people of all over the world
will stream there to worship."
Isaiah 2:2 (NLT)
