This is a poem I wrote a while ago....called "The Maker". Hope it brightens your day=-)
 The Maker’s fingertips,
 Can cause the sky to storm, 
 The Maker’s fingertips, 
 They make the oceans roar, \
And all around me now, 
 Fast falls the pouring rain--
 Please touch me as I bow,
 And make me new again. 

 When I am alone at night, 
 Surround me with your love,
 And hold me tight… 

 And after wild storms, 
 He’ll touch the heavens’ brow, 
 And cause the storm to cease, 
 And bring a soft rain-bow.

 So stop imagining, 
 That He is far away, 
 Up in the heavens still— 
No, He’s with us every day. 
 And as our colors show, 
 Displaying His image, 
 Then let us all fall down, 
 And proclaim His awesomeness.

Hello there! Welcome to my blog. This is my first "official" post. I'm Lizzie, and this blog is dedicated to chronicling my adventures/inspirations/trials during this new chapter in my life. May this blog be a hopeful light that brightens your day, or at least helps you get another perspective on the sky and the people underneath it.
To God, we're like His stars in the heavens, pointing to Him, telling His story. Shine bright! "No one lights a lamp and puts it in a place where it will be hidden, or under a bowl. Instead he puts it on its stand, so that those who come in may see the light....Therefore if your whole body is full of light, and no part of it dark, it will be completely lighted, as when the light of a lamp shines on you." ~Jesus, Luke 11:33, 36 "The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it." ~John 1:5 "In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven." ~Matt. 5:16 "But YOU are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for His own possession, that you may PROCLAIM the excellencies of Him who called you out of darkness and into His marvelous LIGHT." ~ 1 Peter 2:9
