”The Lord is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens! Who is like the Lord our God, who is seated on high, who looks far down on the heavens and the earth?“
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭113‬:‭4‬-‭6‬ (‭ESV‬‬)

This waxing crescent caused me to run out in bare feet, sweats, and a tee shirt across a wet pasture at 49 degrees. I woke up a bit later than planned and feared the chance would fade once the sun broke over the horizon!

‭‭John‬ ‭11‬:‭25‬-‭26‬ ‭(ESV‬‬)

”May you be blessed by the Lord, who made heaven and earth!“
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭115‬:‭15‬ ‭(ESV)‬‬

A late February sunrise last week was spectacular in an unusual kind of way, with colors swirling and changing reminding me of the times I’ve been privileged to witness the dancing skies of the Aurora Borealis! Maybe this was a show of the “eastern lights”?READ MORE
