I figure it's only fair I share a more shining moment.
Shining like the stars, actually.
Yesterday this article popped up on my browser.
So
GREAT time. Worth the lack of sleep. I highly recommend this activity - even without a meteor shower.
P.S. - Thanks, Papa, for doing this with me when I was a little girl. What a gift you gave me. An appreciation for the heavens, and a great activity to pass on to my children.
Genesis 1:16-18: God made two great lights - the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars. God set them in the expanse of the sky t o give light on the earth, to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good.
Psalms 19:1 - The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands.
That's awesome. This is one of my favorite scriptures - wanted to share it with you:
ReplyDeleteFrom Isaiah 40:
21 Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
Has it not been told you from the beginning? Have you not understood since the earth was founded?
22 He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth,and its people are like grasshoppers. He stretches out the heavens like a canopy,and spreads them out like a tent to live in.
23 He brings princes to naught and reduces the rulers of this world to nothing.
25 "To whom will you compare me?
Or who is my equal?" says the Holy One.
26 Lift your eyes and look to the heavens:
Who created all these?
He who brings out the starry host one by one, and calls them each by name. Because of his great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing.
And I appreciated your Random Acts post - I am often hesitant to say things because I'm afraid people will be annoyed. Thanks :)
