We often look up at the heavens and stare in awe and wonder at the glory of God. And for good reason! Psalm 19:1 tells us that, “The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.” But what if we were to switch perspectives? What if we could look down from the heavens and 
gaze upon the beauty of Earth? What would we see?
That question is one that is so wonderfully answered by Col. Jeff Williams, a NASA astronaut who played a key role in the design, construction, and operation of the International Space Station. After spending over five hundred days in space, he has shared countless photos, videos, and talks about the incredible creativity and precision in the design of Creation, but from a different view entirely! What did he see from heaven’s perspective?
Well, they say a picture is worth a thousand words, and this conversation proves just how true that is! From images of the Grand Canyon to New York City, Col. Williams shows the intricate beauty of Creation that we often miss from the ground. We can see the sunrises and sunsets; the waterfalls and the mountain ranges, but we don’t often get to witness the complexity of the very ground we walk on.
But what is the point of sharing these incredible images and videos besides staring in awe at the genius of Creator God? According to Col. Williams, these pictures are incredible apologetic tools to use as we witness to others and share the majesty of our great God. They are truly a perfect example of the rocks crying out! So take some time this week to listen to the genius of Col. Williams and allow his stories and experience to encourage you to share your faith with someone.
