Glory

“The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship.”Psalms‬ ‭19‬:‭1‬ ‭NLT‬‬

The heavens proclaim God’s glory, yet, they are not glory in themselves to be worshipped. They display God’s glory. When John visited heaven he saw God’s glory and could not handle it. When God revealed Himself to Moses He covered Moses with His hand and only revealed His back, as Moses could only handle that much glory. After being 30 days in God’s presence Moses’ face glowed so much that he had to put a veil over it.

The sun represents God’s glory. We are unable to look at it with our eyes or we will be blinded. Yet, God is more glorious than the sun. There are many stars larger than our sun. Yet, God is more glorious than them. Sirius is the brightest star as seen from earth, however, there are larger and brighter starts in the universe.

So, compared to what we do see, God is greater. We find this hard to imagine as we have finite minds and relegate God to human frames. Jesus had a human frame but God the Father didn’t and doesn’t. The Holy Spirit is everywhere. We are limited to here and now.

Therefore, what we do see gives glory to God, because He is and was in creation, it bears His signature, His note. Amen!
