It was cool, after I posted my last blog, late that night I went out on the quad at first and then out onto the soccer field to watch a meteor shower (although it never really got that intense while we were out there), it was awesome to just lay beneath the stars and look up at the night sky and its rolling expanse and all of its glory.
I couldnt help but think to myself that this was just one of the canvas' that God has used to demonstrate His almighty power, love and creativity.
"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 strength, not one of them is missing. " - - Isaiah 40:26
As beautiful as Van Gogh's "Starry Night" is, and it is worth millions of dollars, it still doesnt not begin to capture or recreate the beauty and majesty as only God can do. Words fail me when I search for a way to describe the pure and utter power and vastness of God's intimate and detailed creation. God is not limited to this earth, nor is He limited to this universe. . .
But rather, He took the time to create it all, to know the name of every star, to know the number of grains of sand that the earth contains, the number of heairs on my head and a love that knows no comparison. The love of the Father is incomprehendable. He sent His Son to die for the sins of the world which He created, a world that turned their backs on Him.
If that isnt amazing love, then I dont know what is.
