We are faced with many troubles in our journey toward the celestial gates. It is when we have drifted from the refuge of the Lord and we are close to leaving Him because of our sin that we have no desire to praise Him.  Yet it is always good to praise Him. It is always good to sing praises to Him. Circumstances should not change our relationship with Jesus. We should praise Him anyway. . He designed the universe in order to show His attributes.Its a visual revelation of Himself in creation. . On a cool night far from the illuminate light of the big cities we can look at the lights in the sky, and get a glimpse of eternity. He holds the heavenly bodies in their place.He even guides the falling stars. God calls the stars by their names. As God is holding the stars in their orbit so He is holding us from falling. But there are times in our lives that we feel like that a falling star. Even when we are falling we are being sustained by Him. He upholds us with His power as we are falling. Even tho we feel all alone and forgotten by our friends God is still guiding as we are that falling star. We are being taught that He is the only person that we can trust..We can never lose hope because God is guiding us by His grace. His grace is more powerful than our sin.. So in our fallen state He is closing up our wound and healing our pain. He forgets everything that we have lost in this world. We are gathering together with the saints to show forth His praise as the stars are displayed by God..  Our God made a covenant with Abraham that He would have children as the number of stars. We are Abrahams children by spiritual birth We have the same spiritual privileges promised in that covenant. We are one of those stars being upheld in that vast heavenly light show. Yet looking up beyond the stars we are confronted with a dark mysterious show of eternity, a mysterious darkness of eternal dimensions.God is displaying His glory and power in holding us up. We are being guided by His infinite understanding. Yes just as He is sustaining those heavenly lights from His eternal abode in that dark mysterious space, He showing forth our lives illuminating the glory of God as the bright star. Do you feel His presence. Dont let Satan convince you that you are beyond His care. Go to the night and think of His power to uphold the display of heavenly lights. Sing to Him in your darkest hour. It is fitting, normal , realistic to bless Him with our lips. To God be the glory
