me gusta la luna

















the moon has always been my favorite.
far better than the stars or clouds or even comets shooting across the sky.
in a way, we are the moon.
a big ball of dust, reflecting some light.

"For he knows our frame; he remembers that we are dust."
Psalm 103:14

The Lord made man out of dirt.  Granted, woman out of man's rib, but that's besides the point.
We are dust, we were made by the Lord and our bodies will be perishable one day just like the moon.
But while we're here, we are to reflect light.

"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."
Matthew 5:16

The moon doesn't give off light itself, and neither do we.
We have to reflect the light that comes from Jesus onto earth.
The moon is visible because of the moon and is being reshaped by it every single day by the sun.
At least, that's how it looks to us on earth.

Go around the globe.
Shine the light of Jesus that you couldn't shine on your own accord.
Think like luna.
