God where are you?

I purchased my NASA approved eclipse glasses on Amazon. As they promised,  they were delivered within two days. As with half the population within 100 miles of either side of the totality line, our office waited in great expectation.

When the time came, sporting my safety glasses, I looked up into the heavens. The picture that I saw was amazing. It spoke to me of heaven itself.

Years ago, King David wrote, "The heavens declare the glory of God; and their expanse shows the work of his hands."

Obviously, I don't look into the eye of the sun on a regular basis. But with these powerful shades, for just a moment I could see the sun and moon perfectly pair with each other. I said to myself, this didn't happen by accident. How could it? I looked up and beheld the majesty of an almighty creator.

If you're a person who is skeptical about this God thing, think about yesterday. Think about the chances of this happening. It couldn't have happen without an intelligent creator. The way I see it is God is not giving you any excuses to wonder. The writer in the New Testament book, Romans says "For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood from His workmanship, so that men are without excuse".

Sunset after the eclipse
Yesterday, He was clearly seen. I thought about it all afternoon and even now. Even as I watched the sunset, the silence was screaming to me "I AM GOD".

I hope you will use this solar eclipse event to
create, ponder, or restore your faith in an Almighty God. If he can lineup the planets, just think what he can do in your life.

So as to the question, "God, where are you". I hope you get it. :-)
