Today I rejoice in the sun. It shines from the sky, warming the earth, lighting the day.

¹⁴Then God said, “Let lights appear in the sky to separate the day from the night. Let them be signs to mark the seasons, days, and years. ¹⁵Let these lights in the sky shine down on the earth.” And that is what happened. ¹⁶God made two great lights—the larger one to govern the day, and the smaller one to govern the night. He also made the stars. ¹⁷God set these lights in the sky to light the earth, ¹⁸to govern the day and night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.

Genesis 1:14-18

The sun reminds me that there will come a day when these great lights will not be necessary. For the Lamb, Jesus, will provide all the light we need. I rejoice and look forward to that day.

²³And the city has no need of sun or moon, for the glory of God illuminates the city, and the Lamb is its light. ²⁴The nations will walk in its light, and the kings of the world will enter the city in all their glory. ²⁵Its gates will never be closed at the end of day because there is no night there. 

Revelation 21:23-24

Truly God is good and all he has made is good. What are you rejoicing in today? How are you blessing the Lord?
