They say (whoever “they” are) that a picture is worth a thousand words. But, on the other hand, faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. So, I guess it’s up to me to connect the words to the picture. And that’s what I do on a fairly regular basis. Just like the time (many seconds ago) when I saw a beautiful picture of night skies outlined by the northern lights somewhere up in Norway.

Those night skies were filled with light.

You could see countless stars from the top, darker edge of the picture, all the way down to the outline of the aurora borealis. And the lights, in the night skies, illuminated a quiet, basically uninhabited landscape of sparse trees and mostly virgin snow. A great photograph of beauty most people never see, in person, anymore.

I found the picture online where a woman shares many photographs like that. And most of the time she adds her own titles. Sometimes the combination of her title and the beauty of the picture inspires me to make the words and picture connection. That’s what happened early this morning with the picture you see in my glasses at the top of this article.

Here’s the result.

When Heaven Whispers

When Heaven whispers through night skies,
God’s children listen to the sighs
That freely flow up to the source
Of love Who keeps us on the course
Toward eternal love and light
Where there will never more be night
Or need for whispers through night skies
For those who ran to win the prize.

Yeah, I connected that picture to MY words. But, I also connected it AND my words to THE Word. That’s the prize link.
