In Awe of His Glory

Every day, whether I'm having a good day or a bad day, I am reminded of God's glory and promises. There is just something about nature that connects with me and gives me a deeper connection with God. Every evening, when I'm driving home from work, I love staring at the sunset. (I know they say never stare straight into the sun because it will damage your eyes and vision, but oh well.) There is something so captivating about a beautiful sunset that leaves me in awe. What glory and majesty is revealed in each setting sun. This evening, I drove to Denbigh Docks which is just five minutes from my home to watch the sun set and spend some time just sitting silent in the presence of my Lord. It was beautiful. And breathtaking.
 
If I go out after work and come home much later in the night after the sun is already set, I always get out of my car and just gaze at the moon and stars in the sky. For some reason, I feel like the night sky has been so open and clear the last couple months, or maybe I have just been more observant of it recently. When I get out of my car, I stand in the middle of the road or in my driveway staring at the beautiful constellations. How vast and beautiful the night sky can be....I literally feel like when I lock my sight on the shining, bright moon, that the Lord speaks to me and reminds me of His presence, His faithfulness, and His promises. He is always there, always loving. The One constant source in my life. I am so thankful for these daily reminders of His glory.
