Northern Lights
I was having trouble sleeping last night and at about 2:30 a.m. I looked out at the stars. They were very bright due to a very cold,-15, clear night. I looked down toward the point and there they were--Gods light show--the northern lights. I was so happy to see them. Shafts of light shot up into the sky and the green-yellow glow came in ghostly waves across the sky. It is a very breathtaking sight. Dennis and I watched it and I can see how people from long ago thought it was spirits. Isn't it to bad that we know so much . Dennis went back to bed but I sat and watched into the wee hours of the morning. It makes you feel very small in this big universe and no church can make you feel more a part of Gods creation than nature itself. I had a great night and I will have a good day--hope you do to. Look to the sky when you get up at night. You never know what wonders you will see!

I completely agree. And, looking out at the stars is one of the few good things about having a baby that wakes up every night at 3:00am. :-) -- Mary
