Re: Sky

Scripture: “In The beginning God created the heaven and the earth.” Genesis 1:1dictionary.cambriage.org Sky the area above earth, in which clouds, the sun, the moon, the starts can be seen.

When I decide to move from Puerto Rico to Connecticut it was a big decision. It involved leaving behind family and friends whom I love and who love me. But I came to Connecticut to begin a new life. To a place where the only people I knew were immediate family. As time passes I have new friends, new experiences, a new life and that includes even my experience with God. New!

As I have been creating my new life I have been vigilantly observant. I look at the sky and take pictures of it. There are things that I see in the sky that others might not see. I see clouds but in the clouds I see different shapes and colors hidden. I see the beginning of a new day. Sometimes I think that God is talking to me through the sky.

When you look outside and see how big the sky is. That is how big your trust in God should be. That is the only thing that should matter your trust in God. At the end we all live in the same house called earth under the same roof we call sky.

When you feel that your sky is falling apart or things don’t go the way you expect raise your hands to the sky and say this verse, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me ” Philippians 4:13. Your answer might come from unexpected places.

When you raise your hands to the sky let it be because you are thankful, full of joy, full of happiness. You are letting go of everything that bothers you by doing that you can feel God’s presence with you in the relieved confirmation that everything is in God’s control and everything is going to be alright. When you lift your hands you are letting go the negatives and you are acknowledging that you are in the presence of the Divine. It is like you are asking for help and accepting that it is already offered. Even while we are in school… you raise your hand when you have questions , knowing that the answer is at your disposal. When you worship and you raise your hands what does that mean to you?

Sometimes we look up to the sky to seek answers to our prayers or our questions. This remind me of a song that I love because of the message it has.

“Levanta las manos y di Señor levanto mis manos aunque no tenga fuerzas, aunque tenga mil problemas. Levantó mis manos aunque no tenga fuerzas, levantó mis manos aunque tenga mil problemas. Cuando levantó mis manos comienzo a sentir una unción que me hace cantar. Cuando levantó mis manos comienzo a sentir el fuego. Cuando levantó mis manos mis cargas se van nuevas fuerzas tú me das. Todo eso es posible, todo eso es posible cuando levantó mis manos. Levantó mis manos aunque no tenga fuerzas, levantó mis manos aunque tenga mil problemas, cuando levantó mis manos comienzo a sentir una unción que me hace cantar cuando levantó mis manos comienzo a sentir el fuego, cuando levantó mis manos mis cargas se van nuevas fuerzas tu me das todo eso es posible, todo eso es posible cuando levantó mis manos, cuando levantó mis manos comienzo a sentir una unción que me hace cantar cuando levantó mis manos comienzo a sentir el fuego cuando levantó mis manos mis cargas se van nuevas fuerzas tu me das todo eso es posible todo eso es posible cuando levantó mis man s todo eso es posible cuando levantó mis manos”.
