Starry night

Late last night I climbed up a mountain and laid under a dark, cloudy sky. One by one, stars began to shine through the clouds. Beauty is too small a word to describe the night sky here in Bolivia. Silence and God’s amazing creation. 
How small we are! How easily we forget this. 
How great His love is. How easily we forget this too.
Don’t get overwhelmed with the world. Get overwhelmed by how GREAT God’s love is for us. It’s beautiful to think that we can drop the heavy burden of the world and run to the outstretched, pierced hands of Jesus. The creator of every star who loves us in a way we will never grasp. 
Don’t forget. Don’t let business and life overwhelm you. Don’t forget to look at the stars.
