a wonderful day

I have learned many things this day. Yes, they may be insignificant, but then they may not be. I just want to take a moment to think God for the moon. It's beautiful out tonight. I am going to take a walk and meditate a while on the truth that I know to be true, and yet so often forget. Daddy was talking in family worship tonight about the sin of forgetfulness. He pointed out how frequently God has to repeat Himself in the Bible. How many times does He say that we are His people and He is our God? Yet how often you can find me acting, thinking and talking like I have nothing to do with God. If I could only remember how great He is. Considering that I don't know a fraction of what there is to know about Who He really is, the fact that I forget 98.7% of what I do know on a regural basis, is absolutely unbelievable pathetic.
Well dear friends, take a moment to enjoy the moon this evening. Then remember Psalm 8:

1O LORD, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory above the heavens.
2Out of the mouth of babes and infants,
you have established strength because of your foes,
to still the enemy and the avenger.

3When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,
4what is man that you are mindful of him,
and the son of man that you care for him?

5Yet you have made him a little lower than the heavenly beings[b]
and crowned him with glory and honor.
6You have given him dominion over the works of your hands;
you have put all things under his feet,
7all sheep and oxen,
and also the beasts of the field,
8the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea,
whatever passes along the paths of the seas.

9O LORD, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!

It was so pretty out that night. I took pictures of the moon through the trees. I loved it. It was very beautiful.

God is an awesome creator.
