21 Days of Wonder: 'SKY'

God’s sanctuary in the sky awaits us all.

Take fifteen minutes to look, really look, at all the lights in the sky—
the disc that is the moon, the Milky Way, the stars,
even the planes that shoot across night’s canopy.
Even if there’s light pollution, take note of the shadows and the textures above.

As you observe the lights—those created by God and others crafted by humankind—
reflect on the promise God made to Abraham thousands of years ago
that his descendants would be more numerous than all the stars in the sky (Genesis 15:5).

Consider God’s faithfulness in your own life and journey.

"important" ~

our photo prompt this week

is

"important"

"We ask ourselves: Who am I to be?

Brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?

Actually, who are you NOT to be?

You are a child of God.

Your playing small does not serve the world.

There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so

that people won't feel insecure around you.

We were born to make manifest the glory of God

that is in us. It is not just in some of us,

it is in everyone

And as we let our own light shine,

we unconsciously

give other people permission to do the same..."


Colossians 1.26-2.6
 "God wanted everyone...to know this rich and glorious secret
inside and out,
regardless of their background,
regardless of their religious standing.
The mystery in a nutshell is just this:
Christ is in you,
so therefore you can look forward to sharing in God's glory.
It's that simple.
That is the substance of our Message...
We teach in a spirit of profound common sense
so that we can bring each person to maturity.
To be mature is to be basic.
Christ! No more, no less...
I want you woven into a tapestry of love,
in touch with everything there is to know of God.
Then you will have minds confident and at rest,
focused on Christ, God's great mystery.
All the richest treasures of wisdom and knowledge
are embedded in that mystery
and nowhere else."
~The Message

Mt 5.15
"You're here to be light,
bringing out the God-colors in the world.
God is not a secret to be kept.
We're going public with this, as public as a city on a hill.
If I make you light-bearers, you don't think I'm going to hide you under a bucket, do you?
I'm putting you on a light stand.
Now that I've put you there on a hilltop, on a light stand—shine!
Keep open house;
be generous with your lives.
By opening up to others,
you'll prompt people to open up with God,
this generous Father in heaven."
