‘The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship. Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known. They speak without a sound or word; their voice is never heard. Yet their message has gone throughout the earth, and their words to all the world. God has made a home in the heavens for the sun. It bursts forth like a radiant bridegroom after his wedding. It rejoices like a great athlete eager to run the race. The sun rises at one end of the heavens and follows its course to the other end. Nothing can hide from its heat.’ Psalms 19:1-6 (NLT)
On 20 June, 2016, there was the rare occurrence of a full moon and solstice coinciding. It resulted in a strawberry moon! That night my wife and I were at a beach in North Carolina and saw the spectacular moon.
As it rose in the sky, the reflection on the ocean was spellbinding. God was speaking. No, I didn’t hear any audible voices, but in the stillness God was speaking to me.
“The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims His handiwork. Day to day pours out speech, and night to night reveals knowledge” (Psalm 19:1). Get away from the noise! Look up at the sky and listen to God.
