This truth should fill the heart with humility, awe, gratitude, joy, reverence, and deep thanksgiving. We are not lost in a meaningless Universe. We are all flesh and blood beings made by God in His own image and placed within His ordered Creation. We are invited to know and worship the Great and Holy One who made all things — YAHWEH Elohim Shaddai, the LORD God Almighty — and His Son, our Lord Jesus Christ.
The Heavens Proclaim God’s Glory
The light that crosses the heavens to reach Earth is only a faint reflection of the greater light of God’s glory.

Each light — great or small — fulfills a precise role within the Creator’s grand design.

Together, the lights across the heavens form a celestial testimony of purpose, beauty, and function. They proclaim the Creator’s infinite
