I like to imagine that the sky is a canvas and God is the painter, and every sunrise and sunset, if we wish, we may sit and watch Him create with masterful strokes of some giant invisible paintbrush an original never-to-be-repeated-again masterpiece. I, for one, never get tired of watching; and He, apparently, never gets tired of creating them for our enjoyment. He could have just programmed in a standard sunset/sunrise model, you know. Aren’t you glad He didn’t?

Beautiful skyscape.
I have often had the same thoughts and at those times I feel so close to God. You are right, I think of the sky as God’s water color painting for us to enjoy each day. Thank you,Beth.
