Sabbatical Reflections: Words on a Page #18 Stargazing


Stargazing

Middle of the night rendezvous
I wait for Your call.

Step through the dark
Into the glory of light.

Tiptoe out. 
Don't wake the neighbours!

Wait.  Watch.
Tears fill my eyes.

Tiny. Bright. Distant dance.
Beauty and majesty touch my soul.

Spread out like a tapestry
You made these with Your word.

A still, yet moving, work of art.
Your heart shouts with a thousand lights.

Jeremiah 31:35  This is what the LORD says, he who appoints the sun to shine by day, who decrees the moon and stars to shine by night, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar-- the LORD Almighty is his name!
