Looking Up

The long, long day gets longer.  Fear crowds out rationality, conversations are tinged with misunderstandings, and mud covers everything.

So tired and so weepy and so run down. Then...a glance up at the sparkling starry sky.

 Lift up your eyes on high and see: who created these?  He who brings out their host by number, calling them all by name, by the greatness of his might, and because he is strong in power not one is missing. Isaiah 40:26

Because he is strong in power, not one of the millions of stars is missing.

And no Amelia is missing.  No Baby is missing.  No Steve is missing.  No family on road trip or heathens at home are missing.

No one in Haiti or Chile is missing.  No missionaries struggling to reach people with the gospel are missing.  No decisions and no past, present, or future are missing.

It's all by the greatness of his might.
