Morning Debut

Image via Wikipedia

Up early this morning….

Stumbled out of bed, still half asleep.

I slipped through the house, in the half dark.

Quiet and still.

Then I saw it.

And I stopped and stared.

The barest sliver of glowing light against the darkness.

I watched as the pink sun made it’s morning debut.

Breathless.

Such beauty.

Who knew that a star could be so beautiful?

 ¹⁴And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:

 ¹⁵And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.

 ¹⁶And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.

 ¹⁷And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth…  Genesis 1  KJV
