God's Fireworks

In ancient times they were considered omens. Some cultures saw them as bad and some good. I think it's easier to think of them as God's fireworks. In this case, I didn't even see it with my own eye! I've enhanced the image, so you could see it better.
It reminds me of how small I am and how big God is. He's taking care of us each day at a time.

Psalm 19

For the director of music. A psalm of David.

1 The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.

God is so big, and so good to us. He's still holding the world in the palm of His hand and has not grown weary or old. To me, there are no accidents (just convergence - that's for another post), there are divine appointments. I actually had two pictures back to back of a meteor! Two meteors, wow!
This summer take time to get away from the busy life, get away from the lights and see the awesomeness of what God has created reflecting the awesomeness of Him. Take a drive out into the country on a clear night, and gaze up into the open heavens.

C.S. Lewis wrote "Perelandra" the second book in his Space Trilogy. The king and queen there, the first man and wife (an Adam and Eve typology for you theological seminarians) were facing a very difficult temptation with the introduction of humans in the form of an evil physicist and his rocket.
Ransom, the main character is transported by "spiritual" beings to Venus to deal with mess that is about to occur, which will corrupt another planet forever. In essence Venus is a second Eden.
In Perelandra, the king and queen could not fathom looking beyond the golden dome of the sky to see the naked heavens and the greater universe that they live in.
It has a great ending, but I recommend reading the trilogy in order for it too make the most sense and even though they can stand alone, their is a far greater story by bringing them together.
Get out and enjoy our naked heavens, where God is the master artist who paints in fine strokes, the wonder and grandeur of the universe.
