The moon kind of tricked me this morning. When I woke up, a little before five, it convinced me that the sun was about to peek over the mountains.
Nope. That wasn’t going to happen for almost two hours. The extra light was a full moon reflecting the sun’s rays into the bedroom.
But I felt a little tug so I started the coffee and made my way to the loft for morning prayers. There I was greeted by one of my favorite verses, ” The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament (the sky) shows his handiwork.” (Psalm 19:1)
“Declare” “Shows”
It’s now a little after six and I just added to my to-do list, “take a long look at the sky and prayerfully ask yourself what it’s saying.”
I just discovered your blog and am working my way through the posts, month by month. I can really relate to this one. I have a special appreciation for the sky and its ever-changing beauty. I even have a folder in my Google Photos named Sky Pics that I share with some of those who ‘get’ it. I’m trying to train-up my boys, the next generation of sunset-chasers, to understand that God paints these beautiful pictures in the sky for us each day, each one unique. A daily treat from our majestic, peaceful, comforting, awesome God because He loves us, why else?
