For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is His love for those who fear Him. — Psalm 103:11
There’s something about a clear night sky. One Christmas Eve we visited my wife’s brother in Ohio. It was terribly cold out, but we sat in his outside hot tub, the steam forming icicles in our hair, staring up at the sky. I remember feeling a sense of wonder as I thought about what I saw in the sky. There is simply no way to comprehend the distance between the stars, the size of our galaxy, the vast, vast expanse of space.
We can look at the sky, but we cannot comprehend it. And we can look at the love of God, but we cannot take it all in. God knows this. He knows that we have to become something that we were not in order to experience His love. That is why He chose to make us eternal sons and daughters of God.
If you don’t feel loved by God, try jumping up and catching the nearest star. Then know that God will stoop down and pick you up in His eternal love.
