He made the stars!

In the fourth day's work, the creation of the sun, moon, and stars is accounted for. All these are the works of God!

The stars are spoken of as they appear to our eyes from the earth, without telling their number, nature, place, size, or motions...because the Scriptures were written, not to gratify our curiosity, or make us astronomers, but to give light to the earth and lead us to God.

The lights of heaven are made to serve him...they do it faithfully, and shine in their season without fail, so why shouldn't we? We are set as lights in this world to serve God and our fellow man; but do we in like manner answer the end of our creation? We don't...Our light doesn't always shine before God, as His lights shine before us!

We enjoy our Master's candles, but all too often don't mind our Master's work. The stars and His creation remind us that we are not our own! We belong to Him and His mercy belongs to us! ❤
