---THE MAKER OF THE MOON~~

-"The LORD said, "I will be their God and
they will be my people." --[Jeremiah 31:33]--

~~~AFTER astronauts set the Eagle down in the Sear of Tranquility, Neal Armstrong said, "That one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." He was the first human to walk on the surface of the moon. Other space travelers followed, including the commander of the last Apollo mission, Gene Cernan. "There I was, and there you are, the Earth--dynamic, overwhelming, and I felt...it was just too beautiful to happen by accident," Cernan said," There has to be somebody bigger than you and bigger than me." Even from their unique view in deep space, these men understood their smallness in comparison to the vastness of the Universe.

The prophet Jeremiah also considered the immensity of God as Creator and Sustainer of the Earth and beyond. The Maker of all promised to reveal Himself intimately as He offered His people love, forgiveness, and hope (Jeremiah 31:33-34). Jeremiah affirms God's enormity as He who "appoints the sun to shine by day, who decrees the moon and stars to shine by night" (v.35). Our Creator and Lord Almighty will reign above all as He works to redeem all of His people (vv.36-37).

We'll never finish exploring the immeasurable vastness of the Heavens and depths of the Earth's foundations. but we can stand in awe at the complexity of the Universe and trust the Maker of the Moon--and everything else.

-"Creator and Sustainer of all, thank You for inviting us to know You and trust You today and forever. Thank You, Lord Jesus, You are the same yesterday and today and forever. [Hebrews 13:8] ~ We worship You.~~
