The sunrise was glorious this morning. I am so thankful I had an opportunity to see it. The rich variety of color and texture that continued to change during those 15 minutes even as the chill in the air tickled my nose and fingers was amazing. Pictures simply don’t do it justice… but I will continue to take them.
A theme that runs throughout the bible is that God is the omnipotent creator. Genesis opens with a formless void and proceeds to describe God bringing into being all that was made. Watching this sunrise I see God’s power, His artistic flair, and His supreme sense of beauty. I guess there is one more thing – His perfect balance of timing. While it only lasted for about 15 minutes, it was sufficient to lift my spirit and make a settled certainty for the day – “We are not alone – He is here!”
Psalm 19:1-6
The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands.
Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge.
They have no speech, they use no words; no sound is heard from them.
Yet their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world. In the heavens God has pitched a tent for the sun.
It is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, like a champion rejoicing to run his course.
It rises at one end of the heavens and makes it circuit to the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth.
Be blessed today my friend and be a blessing.
By the way, here are a few other sunrise or sunset pics I’ve taken over the past year.
My, My, My!!! What amazing pictures!!!! Wow! Breathless. Thank you for visiting my blog. I hope you found something that blessed you. I will be sharing soon on some more dreams, visions and things I sense the Lord speak to me in quiet times. You also keep up this great work! 🙂 have a great day!
There will NEVER be two days in history with the same art in the sky! No two shots can be identical ever. That’s how vast God’s creativity is to show a different painting everyday on the canvas of the skies. A new formation of clouds, a new sunrise that lights the skies totally different then the morning before!!!! I am amazed!!! Baffled. Out of words. Thank you for sharing great pictures.
