Can you hear the sunset?
Who has not marveled at the beauty of a sunset?We stand motionless, awestruck,hushed by the flaming sky as the sun moves over the western horizon. Seeming to hesitate a moment, the glowing orb suddenly drops out of sight, leaving the sky ablaze with brilliant shades of pink,orange and red. Somehow the frustrations of the day are put to silence by the majestic, yet soothing voice of God as we view a glorious sunset.
Because the sun’s ray are slowed down slightly and bent by the earth’s atmosphere,the sun apperas to be oval-shaped rather than round. That along with dust or smog in the air explains the dazzling array of colors that give us so much visual pleasure at day’s end.When conditions are just right, the last diminishing bit of yellow-orange sun suddenly changes into a brilliant emerald green. This green flash puts an exciting exclamation point to the end of the day.
To Christians every sunset is an exclamation point given to us by God to end the day. It’s as if the Lord were saying, "Set aside your worries. Rest from your labors. Forget about those disappointments. I am still here,taking care of My universe. I am in control. I have not changed. look beyond the sun to Me and be at peace."
When was the last time you’ve talked to God? Talk to Him..He’s waiting for you..everyday as the sun sets.
P.S. In nature we can hear the voice of God. ^^;
