In the week before the 2024 solar eclipse, there was tangible excitement in the air as the sun and moon were about to engage in a cosmic dance, putting on a stunning display for all to see. On the day of the eclipse, which spanned across the United States, many stood in awe and gazed upward, marveling at the beauty of creation and the wonder of God.
Beyond the sun, moon, and stars lies the Lord God Almighty, the Creator of all things, including you! He is omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent, meaning He is all-powerful, all-knowing, and present everywhere. He is the Sovereign God above all gods.
As Christians and believers, we understand that there is more to behold. There is one who holds the sun, which is bigger and brighter than we can imagine. He remains in control of all that we know and all that we have yet to discover.
The Psalmist reminds us on this day, and every day, that "The Lord is high above all nations, and His glory above the heavens."
Now that the eclipse is over, let us remain in awe of His faithfulness and know that He is God. Let us revere Him and be amazed by His greatness. We should actively look for Him in our daily lives and allow Him to guide, love, and save us from our sins.
Let us make Him the Lord of our lives and seek His guidance daily.
Let us love Him with all our soul, mind, heart, and strength.
If we cry out to Him, He will hear us and improve our lives. He will bless us with His presence, grace, and guidance until the end of our days. "Who is like the Lord our God, who is seated on high, who looks far down on the heavens and the earth?"
He hangs the moon and holds the sun in its place. Let us always remember to give Him praise and honor for loving us, forgiving us, providing for us, and leading us daily.
Blessed be the Lord God Almighty who was, and is, and is to come.
