Look to the Night Sky [Psalm 19:1-2]

Psa 19:1 For the choir director. A Davidic psalm. The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky proclaims the work of His hands.
Psa 19:2 Day after day they pour out speech; night after night they communicate knowledge.

“People would live their lives differently if they would just occasionally look into the night sky.” I heard this quote a few nights ago and it really struck me. Over the next few days, that quote and this verse in Psalm 19 continued to resonate through my mind. So, after work one night, I decided to take a moment to look into the night sky. At that moment, all my problems, worries, distractions, literally everything disappeared and it was just me and God. I can say from personal experience that I allow my problems to be “bigger than God” and sometime I think that God may not be able to handle what I’m going through. Do you ever feel that way? It was that night that it was all put into perspective again. God, who created all that I can see in the sky, the moon, the stars, the “blackness”, the immeasurable expanse of space, truly cares about what is bothering me. Before He can help, He wants our full attention. That night God got my full attention.

If you are struggling, stressed or just seem to be distracted, look at the night sky. God is all around us and cares, sometimes we just need simple reminder.
