The heavens declare.

God is great! If only it were easier to escape our everyday vanities and seek Him and see Him. I love to go out at night to do this with my friends, to praise the Lord with song and tongue. Especially while being able to see the heavens that declare his glory. Being in the city, however, causes strain on the eyes when looking to these voices in the sky we call stars. God has made these galaxies that are Huge! Why then are our eyes are blinded by the false lights (man has created) of the city. Don't get me wrong, I love that Edison utilized the mind given him, but because of an obsession with ourselves the light bulb has been made an idol. We have filled our vision with these objects (usually no larger than a loaf of bread). Why? I submit that it is because we have placed them so close to us. So consider this next time you feel that God is far from you, or if you feel as though He is not revealing himself as promised. Consider that it is not God being far, but rather you being so blinded of his goodness by those "false idols" built up that you have blinded your eyes from the Glory of God being declared.
