January 31 – Moon Light

The solar system’s rotation, a testament to divine order, continues to run on perfect time year after year, month after month. And so, photographers flock to Split Rock Lighthouse on the one night a year when the moon rises behind the lighthouse.

Although the one night changes with the calendar date, the full moon is sure to rise behind the lighthouse on the night of the full moon.

The anticipation of seeing the moon crest the cliff as it slides out from behind the lighthouse is always a rewarding sight for any photographer. 

“He stretches out the north over the void and hangs the earth on nothing.” Job 26:7. What a wondrous act of creation, a reminder of the divine’s unfathomable power and wisdom. 

Thank you, Lord, for your creation that points to You, and for the exquisite beauty of winter that we are privileged to enjoy and live in.
