Last night I was once more in awe of our amazing God! There was a lunar eclipse and I can’t even begin to explain the feeling that I had watching the moon which was huge and bright and full, slowly disappear. It took an hour too completely cover and during that time the sky around us went from being as bright as if a spot light was shining with no stars to a vastness of twinkles as the moon turned from white to an eerie red. It was a pretty cold night so I wrapped myself up warmly and went out to watch it all take place. We had no power either so there were no man-made lights to affect the God-made extravagance. (The power came back on in that time and it was probably the first time I said “oh no” and ran in to switch them all off again!) It slowly began to get darker and as it did so even more stars started to appear. My heart was full! I cried as I stood there starring at the sky and the song “Indescribable” came into my head. He placed the stars in the sky and knows them by name! What an amazing God! I was awestruck and felt so alive in that moment of the greatness of our Lord and yet He knows simple old me – He knows my name and loves me. He knows your name and loves you! He is powerful and did it all just for us to see Him and know Him and worship him as each and every star does!
