Eden at Night!


The African continent at night is awesome. It is a vast land with much fewer city lights than Europe. But it is no longer the dark continent. This peaceful swathe of cool blue signifies hope and potential. If our people could just appreciate this enormous gift which God bestowed on us, and work together to harness the continent's huge resources, Africa would become the paradise it truly is.

We live in the Garden of Eden, designed, planted and nurtured by God Himself, yet we spend much of our time killing and hacking each other to death! The entire globe is the most wondrous creation of the Almighty. When you look at this tremendous piece of marble at night from space, it is stupendously and breathtakingly beautiful. The creator looked at what He created, and He was pleased.

The entire universe whose end we do not know sustains our galaxy and constellation. The moon is there to give us our tides and weather while illuminating the planet at night. The sun is there in its full glory to provide light and life. Our planet is the only one we know with life as we know it. And Man is at the center of it all. Today, I feel great to be a human being. It was all made for me. Thank you, Lord Almighty!
