Barb got me flowers for Valentine's Day!
To wish upon a star is wrong,
for stars are balls of burning gas
with lives that are so very long,
but one day they will pass
into God's eternity,
where they will be transformed,
and there we all will truly see
that Heaven is adorned
with lighthouses of the sky
that call with friendly voice
across a night that that you and I
may through and rejoice
the decision made that day on Earth
to accept our Lord's rebirth.
The Five Minute Friday prompt this week is BUT. So have a seat, hahaha.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
and dead Carl Sagan too
always have been fightin'
to strip your faith from you
by saying that the night-time sky
is so very, very large
that there could hardly be one Guy
who made it all and is in charge
of this multitude of matter
and entropying energy.
Surely that must shatter
any belief in such as He?
But I just laugh and turn away
to see a baby born just yesterday.
Sylvia likes to lie on her back and look at the Milky Way. It reminds her of ice cream.
Great writing as always! I never understand how people can look at creation - whether it is the vast sky or a tiny baby - and not see that there is a God behind it.
ReplyDeleteThere is so much in creation which points to our Creator. I don't think I will ever understand how one can deny that God is behind it all. Happy Valentine's Day to you and Barb!
ReplyDeleteThe bigger the universe, the more assured i am of the presence of God.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to believe how people can take it all in and still not believe there is a God.
ReplyDeleteThe flowers are beautiful. Barb's a gem.
Our God is beyond human comprehension and I'm so glad of that!! Thanks for reminding me of that, Andrew. I needed that anchor today. Kath, at #12 this week.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, this is so powerful Andrew.

It isn't worth arguing, is it. Only the Holy Spirit will convict and open eyes to truth. You are blessed to know it. Beautiful flowers and beautiful lady
