The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship.

GOD’S ASTOUNDING CANVAS
A poem and essay by ILMA
Look up in the skies and be amazed
The sun reflects various colors in a glaze
Clouds in varying shapes parade in a platoon
The firmaments complement their different hues.
The heavens display God’s astounding canvas
Look up! Behold clouds that come and pass
Proclaim God’s magnificence in his creation
Your spirit will be refreshed amidst life’s condition.

I am a very visual person, so I always take delight in watching the skies. Cumulus nimbus clouds in an array of different shades and hues of white, gray and blues on a regular sunny day or on a sunrise or sunset with additional colors are my favorites. I used to chase sunsets and made had an exhibit that showcased my photos and paintings during the turn of the century in 2000. Many people were wowed by my photographs that captured amazing colors that I ran to take in a matter of ten-minute intervals. The best colors to capture in photos is when the sun is eaten up by the horizon which is just a matter of ten minutes. I waited and positioned myself at the best view, usually by the bay and get high after witnessing the horizon swallowing it. The heavens proclaim God’s glory through his craftsmanship displayed in the skies.
PRAYER
Lord, thank you for the skies, which is your canvas.
REFLECTION
When was the last time you have watched the sky?
