Our Pastor, Cliff Marshall, told us this morning of a spectacular sunrise he saw two Sundays ago. He mentioned he's not one to get carried away with nature and such things although he can appreciate their beauty. My family and I can relate to that. There are many wondrous, beautiful natural sights and events that we find truly awesome but we're not "into" nature as such.
Ken and our sons were out late this afternoon and had the setting sun hitting them right in the eyes - you know that point where visors and squinting just don't help. I don't think they were admiring God's handiwork at that particular time. Then, on the way home they were surprised by an incredibly beautiful full moon low in the sky. I know it was incredibly beautiful because my husband shared the moment with me by calling me at home and describing the sight. I believe it would have been impossible not to be awed. I was awed by the fact that God creates such beauty for us to behold. I was moved by the fact that my husband not only appreciated it but chose to share the moment with me even though I wasn't with him at the time.
Let me tell you, it was absolutely wonderful to "see" that beautiful full moon this evening.
