The Light Pollution of Our Hearts

We recently went on a Home school field trip to the Planetarium. We had the whole place to ourselves. The kids enjoyed a non traditional discussion on planets, the stars, and universe because of the intimacy. During that process the facilitator told us some things on light pollution. She went on to explain the affects on the various cities and our ability to see the beautiful created stars big or small. That made me think about the correlation between our daily thinking and our blessings. I want to be so guarded and so careful that I don't allow negativity, fear, or worrying cause that same light pollution for my life. God's stars are always burning bright behind all of the clouding of our artificial lights here on earth. And in the same thinking His blessings are always present despite how we might cloud things with our artificial thinking. I pray I might remove all pollution from my line of sight that I might continue to reap from the joys of each & every blessing (big or small), for they are each beautiful. 1 John 1:5&6 NLT ....God is light, and there is no darkness in Him at all. 6 So we are lying if we say we have fellowship with God, but go on living in spiritual darkness; we are not practicing the truth.
