Today's cherished Nugget from guest blogger Pastor Bill.

“You often find in a book or manuscript a star calling your attention to a footnote or explanation. That star the printer calls an asterisk. But all the stars of the night-heaven are asterisks, calling your attention to God, an all-observing God.”
(Thomas De Witt Talmage)

How awesome to see each thing God created: stars, moon, rocks, creeks, mountains.... We could go on and on seeing things God put as an asterisk to call our attention to His majesty. Just a glimpse of a star-filled sky makes me want to get on my tiptoes and with outstretched arms sing to my Creator the popular hymn, "How Great Thou Art." The writer of Psalms 148:3-8 sums up this need to praise God with these words:

“Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light. Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens. Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created.”

Remember: You are an asterisk to someone.

"God, thank You for all the beauty You put in front of us each day.
Amen."

Bro. Bill

God is awesome and worthy of praise!
