The Maker of the Moon Bible in a Year: 2 Chronicles 7–9 John 11:1–29 [The Lord said,] “I will be their God and they will be my people.” Jeremiah 31:33 Jeremiah 31:33–37 After astronauts set the Eagle down in the Sea of Tranquility, Neil Armstrong said, “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” He was the first human to walk on the surface of the moon. Other space travelers followed, including the commander of the last Apollo mission, Gene Cernan. “There I was, and there you are, the Earth—dynamic, overwhelming, and I felt . . . it was just too beautiful to happen by accident,” Cernan said. “There has to be somebody bigger than you and bigger than me.” Even from their unique view in deep space, these men understood their smallness in comparison to the vastness of the universe. The prophet Jeremiah also considered the immensity of God as Creator and Sustainer of the earth and beyond. The Maker of all promised to reveal Himself intimately as He offered His people love, forgiveness, and hope (Jeremiah 31:33–34). Jeremiah affirms God’s enormity as He who “appoints the sun to shine by day, who decrees the moon and stars to shine by night” (v. 35). Our Creator and Lord Almighty will reign above all as He works to redeem all of His people (vv. 36–37). We’ll never finish exploring the immeasurable vastness of the heavens and depths of the earth’s foundations. But we can stand in awe at the complexity of the universe and trust the maker of the moon—and everything else. Reflect & Pray How does imagining God’s bigness as Creator and Sustainer of the universe help you trust Him with the obstacles that come your way? How does the complexity of the universe help you trust God with the details of your life? Creator and Sustainer of all, thanks for inviting us to know You and trust You today and forever.

Sometimes, I wonder why the Creator of so vast a universe would even care about tiny me..... but when facing an enormous problem, I remember just how great He is and am very thankful that He does care about tiny me. Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

I AM HUMBLED IN MY RECENT AND PRESENT SITUATION THAT HE TAKES TIME TO COMFORT ME. PRAISE BE HIS HOLY NAME.
