Trust the Creator

At approximately 5:35 a.m. today, I captured this image of Venus casting it's light on the moon against a backdrop of the dawning sun over the Rocky Mountains. This beautiful sight is another reminder to me that God is in control and has a far better plan for my life than anything I could ever dream up. No matter how restless I become in my spirit or how weary I feel in my bones when things do not go according to my hopes, God smiles from the heavens and waves His hand across the universe, producing spectacular proof of who He is.

The prophet Isaiah said, "Have you not known? Have you not heard? The everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, neither faints nor is weary." (Is. 40:28)

From the simplicity of finding a penny as Bill and I strolled along a dusty path around our property last evening to the amazement of the night sky fading into morning's light, I am encouraged to keep on keeping on.
