Today's devotional reading for: Tuesday, Jun 1, 2021 Even the Moon Praises Him The heavens declare the glory of God … and night unto night declares knowledge. — Psalm 19:1-2 We all look at the moon, admire the moon, sing about the moon—the moon in June.  It brings out tunes and all of that, but what does the moon really mean to us?   Let me say this: If there were no moon, there would be no you.  For example, the moon is God’s cleaning-maid for the earth.  It cleans up the oceans with its tides. Without those tides and without the moon, all of our shores and all of our bays would be filled with billions of tons of garbage, stench, and debris.  The highest priced landscape would be as far from the seashore as you could get, especially on the leeward side. Furthermore, the moon’s gravitational pull mixes the atmosphere.  Just as it works on the sea, it works on the atmosphere and mixes oxygen with the water in the waves breaking on the shore.  When you watch waves breaking on the shore, you are watching the ocean’s lifeline in progress.  Oxygenated water is required by plankton, which is the foundation of the whole marine food chain without which all marine creatures would die.  The moon, which just “accidentally” happens to be there, just “accidentally” happens to be the right size in the right place and the right distance away from the earth to exert the proper gravitational force on tides and the atmosphere. Day by day, night by night, God’s creation itself brings Him glory for those who will but listen. Question to ponder: What aspects of creation fill you with awe about God?
