The Stars in the Sky

Good evening everyone. It has been one heck of a week, and I tell you what. I am so glad for how it all has went. Doesn't matter if I was in hardship and fell into a pit or if I was in the Lord's presence I just am so thankful for it all. Thankful for how the Lord, our God, treats us and is always there for us. Just utterly amazes me. I honestly get the image of a star when I think of God. I will explain what I mean by this as I get a little bit further into this. So with out further adieu. Let it begin.

As in my car tonight, I was just blown away about how bright and how amazing the stars were out there tonight. It was so clear out and I could see the stars like no other. There was no clouds. Nothing to block our view of those amazing balls of fire that may look small to us here on Earth, but up close are infinitely bigger. When I was just staring that their beauty, I thought about the stars and what happens to them on those overcast nights when we cannot see them. It isn't like they just disappear and are not there when we cannot see them. I thought that was pretty sweet to think about that the stars no matter where we are at or no matter if there are clouds or not are shining down upon us through it all. I then was like if you think about it God is exactly like that. Doesn't that make a lot of sense though? I mean check it out. God created everything in his own image. He puts himself into everything in creation. Why not make the stars of the galaxy have the same characteristics as Him?

Let's dig into that. God is like the stars. He is the stars. No matter where we are at, no matter if it is the darkest of nights or the cloudiest. He shines brightly. Even though we cannot see Him, we trust and know that He is there just like those stars in the sky. He is always going to be there. He is not going anywhere, and HE WILL ALWAYS SHINE THROUGH.

Lord Jesus. Wow. That is all that I can really say to you right now. Your faithfulness, your love, and all of that just completely blow me away. The fact that you made the stars blows me away, and even that that is so far away from us here on Earth that your image is completely shone through them. The fact that they do not stop shining down upon us is just a mirror image of your faithfulness to us. Your love for us Lord. That you are there through every situation, every heartache, every struggle, every triumph, every single thing that we experience and we go through you are right there. I just thank you and praise you for that. In your most highest of names I pray. Amen.
