When the sky has a few random grey clouds, yet the sun is shining, I just love it when the rays pour through the clouds.  Immediately, I picture it as heaven and my loved ones shining through to let me know they are in God’s arms.  It is a favorite view of mine.

What about a cornflower blue sky that has absolutely NO clouds?  No little feathery fluffs.  No cotton ball-like clumps. No wispy stretches of threadbare whiteness. Simply a completely clear, brilliant blue sky. This viewing reminds me of Acts 24:16, “Because of this, I try with all my strength to always maintain a clear conscience before God and man.” Viewing a stunning cornflower blue sky shows me there is NOTHING separating me from God’s view, from His understanding, from His goodness or from His unconditional love.  Nothing!  I simply LOVE these emotions I feel. Knowing God is as close as my breath, but still envisioning a glimpse into His perfect world of heaven-to-come, I am awed by the cornflower blue sky.  Our Father knows us inside and out. Our words before we speak them, He knows.  Our deepest thoughts are known to Him. He has indeed prepared a place for us, who believe in Him (John 3:16). My sky viewings, be it rays of sun through grey tinted clouds or the cornflower, crystal clear sky, are my hugs from God. Stunning glimpses of Him.

Look up and see Him. It’s powerful!
