Number Five

Number Five
           
Just before evening’s changing of the guard, I was walking down our quarter mile road, and a falling star drew my attention. Following its trail, more stars began to appear. I suddenly realized I was experiencing the oncoming of the stars.
            One by one my eyes caught their presence. I stood in silence as though mesmerized by this unexpected encounter. Soon the twinkling began as evening’s light grew darker. As I stared in wonder, it dawned on me that the stars were continually in the sky covering me both night and day. Then, God through His Spirit revealed to me that He is like those stars. He is always with us. However, unlike the stars, we don’t have to wait until dark to see Him. We can experience Him through the day as well.  


“Then God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He made the stars also. God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth, and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.”  Gen. 1:16-18
