Day 8...(Genesis 15,16; Psalm 8) "Reaching for the stars!"

I remember an inspiring night following Hurricane Ivan when in the dark and powerless streets of Pensacola and I gazed at beauty of the stars. How majestic are the stars when nothing else is seen! As a metaphor, how inspiring to reach for them and trust God for the future! Abram hears of being the father of a nation more numerous than the stars. The Psalmist says..."How majestic is your name" including the phrase "When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars." How awesome is God's Word that two passages refer to the stars and both with lofty meaning. How long has it been since we have gazed at the stars and reached for the stars trusting God with the future?
