“When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them? You have made them a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honor.”

Psalms 8:3, 4 (NIV)

God’s Majestic Handiwork

Have you looked up at the stars lately?! God created all we see up there and far beyond what our eyes can’t see. Wow, what an extraordinary view He’s blessed us with!

I’ve always thought it would be cool to be an astronaut for a day, so I could travel to the stars and get a real-life glimpse of the galaxy in all its wonder. It just leaves me speechless every time I gaze up at the brilliantly twinkling beauty our Amazing Creator has dotted throughout the sky. The vast unknown is God’s canvas and He’s painted it with radiant beauty, filling the galaxy with colors of wonder, and it’s so amazing to me. It’s this incredible view He’s given us that makes my heart so thankful to be part of His creation.

Friends, now that’s a heart filled with wonder and amazement!

“Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these? He who brings out the starry host one by one and calls forth each of them by name. Because of His great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing.”

Isaiah 40:26 (NIV)

Let God fill you with wonder. Look up! The stars are hanging in the sky and the galaxy is swirling around all because of God’s majestic handiwork. He wants us to look up and enjoy the masterpiece He wondrously created. Stand in awe of His beautiful work, knowing His hands are Mighty.

Bible Facts – The Stars

The homeschool mom in me is geeking out right now because Astronomy was one of my favorites to explore with my kids. So, I thought I’d share some “star facts” found in the Bible.

God is really amazing! He took such great care in designing each and every piece of creation and we get to enjoy it all.

The stars are just one of the many wonders God has gifted us with and I have to say while I’m not following the star that lead the Wise Men to Bethlehem I can relate to what verse 10 says EVERY time I look up at the beautiful starry sky our Wonderful Creator carefully painted for us.

“When they saw the star, they were OVERJOYED BEYOND MEASURE.“

Matthew 2:10 (HCSB)

Have you thanked God for the stars lately?
