God is more glorious than the moon;
he shines brighter than the stars.
— Job 25:5
You’ve looked at the sky at night, right?
It’s absolutely beautiful. I could stand in awe for hours looking at the moon and all the intricate collections of stars and planets and galaxies and everything else above my head.
And our God is more glorious than all we see in the night sky. His glory shines brighter than the stars. ALL OF THEM.
It’s an absolutely mind-blowing thought.
He not only compares to this amazing expanse of existence we see before us, but he precedes and exceeds it. He comes before and His glory goes beyond anything we can feast our eyes upon in this world. Moon & stars included.
I’m in awe.
