God Made the Sky Blue

Grace (God’s mercy, favor and empowerment) and peace (complete wholeness in spirit, soul and body) to you in the name of Jesus.
Have you really looked at the sky lately? It is such a rich blue, with the occasional white puffy cloud for variety. So you don’t get bored. One of my favorite things to do is seeing shapes in the clouds. Did you know that the rainbow is a copy of the bow around God’s throne? That’s why He told Noah He was setting not just any bow, but His bow, in the sky.
As I was praising and thanking the Lord for the sky this afternoon, it suddenly ‘dawned’ on me… Refraction! For you who forgot science, that is a big word for bending. A slight change in the direction of the light ray. The Lord set it up so that every different color bends its own amount. Here’s the cool part; the same rule (or law or principle) that makes the blue sky also makes the clouds white, the gorgeous sunrises and sunsets, and the rainbow! What a marvelous, all-wise God we have. All that beauty from one rule. Oh, His judgments are right, fair and just!
I am convinced that every physical phenomenon is a mirror image of a spiritual truth. 1 John says that God is light. He is described as ‘fire (or multicolored light, like the fire of a diamond) from the waist up and fire from the waist down’, with ‘bright beams coming from His hands’. That’s our Father!! little bunny trail; that is what Adam and Eve looked like in the garden. That glory light was their clothes. And, that is how we will look in heaven. Even now, we are being changed into His image from glory to glory as we see, or behold, Him. 2 Corinthians 3:18 ‘But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass (mirror) the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.’ Oh, my! That’s so exciting, I am shouting praises inside!! Oh, what a Father! What a Savior! What a Comforter! The Holy Spirit shows us the glory of the Lord through the word of God, nature, the love of friends and even our children. Especially through praise and worship and just quietly listening to Him.
Life is so good! Praise you, Jesus! Glory to your name!
I was going to parallel refraction to a spiritual principle, but it can wait. The Lord directed my bunny trail today. Hallelujah!
I love you all,
healed by His stripes,
