One of our daughters was out running this morning
and witnessed the glory of God.
The sunrise is God's daily reminder
that no matter what is ahead in this day,
and every day,
"I'm here and walking with you through it."
Every morning, every evening, the bookends of our days
reveal our Redeemer.
The Mighty One, God the LORD,
speaks and summons the earth
from the rising of the sun
to its setting.
Out of the perfection of beauty,
God shines forth.
Psalm 50. 1-2
Trusting God is not just a worldview,
but a way of seeing reality
that changes the course of our days
and radically alters our journeys in life.
How we see God impacts
how we love others,
how we respond to circumstances,
and how we see ourselves.
As author C. S. Lewis notes: "I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else."
We take for granted
that every morning sneaks in
with the spectacular,
and we have forgotten
to celebrate.
Our lives should be marked
by His light and hope
that cannot be extinguished.
There are no ordinary days
on God's calendar
without His glory
all over us.
