Light up the Sky

There's this song I've been listening to alot lately, called "Light up the Sky" by The Afters.  It reminds me of Exodus 13:21, when the Bible describes how the Lord went before the Israelites in a pillar of smoke by day, and a pillar of fire by night.  It's so comforting to know that He is always there with me.  When I am unsure of where to go, or what decisions to make, I can find peace in the fact that He will always look out for me.  Have you ever received an unexpected note of encouragement from a friend, or heard a great song that you haven't heard in a while, or read a Bible verse that just seemed like it was written for you?  That is God lighting up your sky for you.  He is always with you...but sometimes the sky is particularly brilliant.  God is lighting up my sky right now; I know without a doubt that He is with me.  I have seen His hand, felt His presence, and understood His heart more in these last few weeks than I have in a long time.  And it's a beautiful thing.  I pray, my dear friends, that God will light up your skies for you, and that you would know that you know that He is with you.  God is so good.


Light up the Sky
By The Afters

The signs are nowhere on this road guiding me home
When the night is closing in
It’s falling on my skin
Oh God will You come close

Light, light, light up the sky
Light up the sky to show me You are with me
I, I, I can’t deny
Oh I can’t deny that You are right here with me
You’ve opened my eyes so I can see You all around me
Light, light, light up the sky
Light up the sky to show me You are with me

When stars are hiding in the clouds
I don’t feel them shining
When I can’t see beyond my doubt
The silver lining
When I’ve almost reached the end
Like a flood You’re rushing in
Love is rushing in

Light, light, light up the sky
Light up the sky to show me You are with me
I, I, I can’t deny
Oh I can’t deny that You are right here with me
You’ve opened my eyes so I can see You all around me
Light, light, light up the sky
Light up the sky to show me You are with me

So I run straight to Your arms
You’re the bright and morning Sun
To show Your love, there’s nothing You won’t do

Light, light, light up the sky
You light up the sky to show me You are with me
I, I, I can’t deny
Oh I can’t deny that You are right here with me
You’ve opened my eyes so I can see You all around me
Light, light, light up the sky
Light up the sky to show me You are with me
