"Heaven is in the sky."
Skies light the way but out in space thousands of galaxies of stars are brighter than the night sky of the Milky Way and the moon. Stars are forming and in infinite number are stirring into shape. Comets, meteorites and fallen stars continue to fall through star matter and the heavens while the angels sit and observe. Although, the heavens are their own and are a scared place protected by God, the view out the window of heaven must be extraordinary. Lunar the moon agrees with the Sun and the other planets have a say. The Earth continues to joyously spin on its axis on a different path to the stars. Zigzagging through the cosmos on the way through the heavens with the planets around the Sun, asteroids are narrowly missed and sometimes God has to intervene. Being on the pathway of asteroids is not fun for Earth but the planet, blithely goes, on its destined journey towards the Sun. On Earth you can see the journey of fellow planets if at night you stargaze, looking at the heavens like the angels, out of your window but the Earth's journey around the Sun takes us close and then away from the Sun for Winter and Summer months. The stars have been out there along with the planets, asteroids and comets for as long as angels, God and the human race have existed as though in suspension, telling us the story of our universe, the galaxies and our cosmos, for centuries. We dream of a heaven and God takes us further past the moon. Are we the comets or the sky? God knows the history of our galaxies and the heavens above while on Earth we are left to consider an Earth or the heavens. Ask the sky at night or God where the heavens take us and what angel to speak to past the moon. Your journey is set like the fixed stars in the sky, just ask God where heaven is in the sky for the comets and the moon to answer: "Heaven is in the sky."
