This morning I hiked to Fidler Pond around the time of sunrise. I love the beauty of sunrises. From a small single point of light on the horizon, the sun rises and illuminates the heavens and the earth. The colors are spectacular and cheer my soul.
Sunrises also remind me of God’s invitation to us. As we rise every morning God is calling us and extending His loving hands toward us. He is inviting us to join Him at His glorious throne and to enjoy the blessings He has stored up for us. All we have to do is trust Him and submit to His call upon us. There we will find even more beauty than the greatest sunrise.
Psalm 50:1-2 says, “The Mighty One, God the Lord, speaks and summons the earth from the rising of the sun to its setting. Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shines forth.”
