Stars and Prayer
I spent
a good deal of time marveling at the stars on this beautiful, clear
night.
Every time I see the night sky, it's like seeing it completely
new. It's so vast and glorious, totally unique and simple in an
alarmingly complex way!
And then I realized, talking with God is kind of
like that. He's huge and wonderful, but He has provided such a simple
way of communicating with Him. Even if we cannot understand how it
works, we know it does. As much joy as I take in observing the stars (on
fire and burning out), I find so much more joy in talking to my
Heavenly Father.
Because I could yell at the stars for hours and nothing
would change, but God in Heaven listens to me. Jesus, the Son,
intercedes on my behalf every day and then puts massive spheres of
burning gas into the galaxy to remind me that He's there and that He
loves me.
Thank you, God.
*smiles quietly* This is beautiful, Susie. It's something I need reminded of sometimes; the stars remind me of the same thing, but living where I do, I don't see them often.
