Genesis 1:1
“In the beginning
God created the heavens
and the earth.”
Need a better view of your life???
Look at it from God’s point of view…
From the sky!!!
Who else gets to paint with clouds???
I see my life sometimes and I ask why…
My heart became like stone and turned to ice…
Tell me, what have I become?
But You came just in time like a shooting star…
Across my universe out of the dark…
Tell me, what have I become?
Take me away, You save me from myself and all I do…
‘Cause life just ain’t the same when I’m with You…
I can climb the sky!!
You got me…
Walking on, wa-walking on the stars…
(Walking on, walking on the stars)
I see life through new set of eyes…
Set on someone different that I never realized…
Outside my mind is a lost world that lies…
But step into my thoughts, you’ll believe you can fly…
Your words like wings, gravity they defy…
My heart like a leaf on the wind catchin’ rides…
They say we can’t make it, at least we gotta try…
We make too much sense, to foolishly pass it by…
So I’m taking a rainbow up to the 5th floor…
Steppin’ out to see that You’re really worth more, and I…
See our love in 3d, no more 2 dimensional worries…
Climb until the sky don’t exist no more…
That’s when I’ll knock knock on Your front door…
Open to the possibilities I ignored…
But I know now exactly what our love was meant for…
Take me away, You save me from myself, and all I do…
‘Cause life just ain’t the same when I’m with You…
I can climb the sky!!
You got me…
Walking on, wa-walking on the stars…
(Walking on, walking on the stars)
Now, I can see my life from way up high…
And now the troubles I once knew, I left behind…
I can climb the sky!!
You got me…
Walking on, wa-walking on the stars…
(Walking on, walking on the stars)
And I can see, much more clear…
When I’m lost in Your atmosphere…
You pull me close, to the place…
Where You’re always waiting…
So I won’t stop, the walls are down…
Make my way at the speed of sound…
Hold me now, hold me now…
Take me away, You save me from myself, and all I do…
‘Cause life just ain’t the same when I’m with You…
I can climb the sky!!
Genesis 1:8
“God called the vault ‘sky.’
And there was evening, and there was morning—
the second day.”
Genesis 1:14-19
“And God said,
‘Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night,
and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times,
and days and years,
and let them be lights in the vault of the sky
to give light on the earth.’
And it was so.
God made two great lights—
the greater light to govern the day
and the lesser light to govern the night.
He also made the stars.
God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth,
to govern the day and the night,
and to separate light from darkness.
And God saw that it was good.
And there was evening,
and there was morning—
the fourth day.”
Psalm 139:7-12
“Where can I go from Your Spirit?
Where can I flee from Your presence?
If I go up to the heavens, You are there;
if I make my bed in the depths, You are there.
If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle on the far side of the sea,
even there Your hand will guide me,
Your right hand will hold me fast.
If I say, ‘Surely the darkness will hide me
and the light become night around me,’
even the darkness will not be dark to You;
the night will shine like the day,
for darkness is as light to You.”
Psalm 147:4
“He determines the number of the stars
and calls them each by name.”
Numbers 16:42
“But when the assembly gathered in opposition to Moses and Aaron
and turned toward the tent of meeting,
suddenly the cloud covered it
and the glory of the Lord appeared.”
Psalm 136:7-9
“Praise Him who made the heavenly lights,
for His loving-kindness continues forever:
the sun to rule the day,
for His loving-kindness continues forever;
and the moon and stars at night,
for his loving-kindness continues forever.”
Isaiah 40:26
“Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens:
Who created all these?
He who brings out the starry host one by one
and calls forth each of them by name.
Because of His great power and mighty strength,
not one of them is missing.”
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17
“For the Lord Himself will come down from Heaven,
with a loud command,
with the voice of the archangel
and with the trumpet call of God,
and the dead in Christ will rise first.
After that,
we who are still alive and are left
will be caught up together with them in the clouds
to meet the Lord in the air.
And so we will be with the Lord forever.”
Exodus 13:21-22
“By day the Lord went ahead of them in a pillar of cloud
to guide them on their way
and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light,
so that they could travel by day or night.
Neither the pillar of cloud by day
nor the pillar of fire by night
left its place in front of the people.”
Acts 1:9-11
“He said to them:
‘It is not for you to know the times or dates
the Father has set by His own authority.
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you;
and you will be My witnesses in Jerusalem,
and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.’
After He said this, He was taken up before their very eyes,
and a cloud hid Him from their sight.
They were looking intently up into the sky as He was going,
when suddenly two men dressed in white stood beside them.
‘Men of Galilee,’ they said,
“why do you stand here looking into the sky?
This same Jesus,
who has been taken from you into Heaven,
will come back in the same way
you have seen Him go into Heaven.”
Philippians 2:15-16
“…so that you may become blameless and pure,
‘children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.’
Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky
as you hold firmly to the word of life.”
Daniel 12:3
“Those who are wise
will shine like the brightness of the heavens,
and those who lead many to righteousness,
like the stars for ever and ever.”
Psalm 8:3-4
“When I consider Your heavens,
the work of Your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which You have set in place,
what is mankind that You are mindful of them,
human beings that You care for them?“
Amen!
Lord, I see my life sometimes and I ask why…
But I’m so thankful that You are mindful of me!!
