The Lord Will

Psalm 136:9

β€œThe moon and stars to rule by night: for his mercy endureth for ever.”

KJV

Read in Psalm 136

Meaning

The creation unit closes with the ordered lights of night under the same refrain of mercy.

Read carefully

The verse describes created lights within an ordered world, not astrological control of human destiny.

Reflection

Practice wonder without turning created things into objects of fear or divination.
