Psalm 8; 3

“When I look at the night sky and see the work of your fingers-

The moon and the stars you see in place”

Have you ever just laid back and looked at the stars in the sky?

I have, I find wonder in the night’s sky.

I see the twinkling of the stars as little windows in heaven.

When I was a little and someone died I was told that a new star had been formed. A new window in heaven formed so that my loved one could look down upon us. I could also look up to the night’s sky and tell the stars, tell my loved one what I had been up, how much I missed them, how much I loved them.

I’m sure many astrologers would love to tell me this is all wrong yet the comfort this brought me was wonderful. Sometimes heaven feels a long way away, the twinkling of stars brings it closer for me.

God is truly amazing, his precision, his wonder is perfection. His creation, his planning, His love

While I thank God for the stars that light the night sky, I also thank him for our imaginations and the gift of the windows from heaven.
