Crimson Covers The Black

@ 5am this morning the sky was dark and no clouds were noticeable in the sky. The wind blew roughly through our window all through the night and was still blowing. I love to pray in the darkness, before the signs of a new day appear.


After 6 there were faint signs of an eastern horizon beginning to lighten. A few minutes later, the sunrise began. I am sure of this, there are never two sunrises alike. Today it was much different than one I’ve ever seen.
When the clouds appeared they were mostly near the horizon and were dark . . . black. Then as the sun made it’s presence more known the clouds were coupled with a crimson shadow.
Does God speak to me through His creation? I truly hope so. I’m not a bit superstitious. But I do look for God’s presence and want Him to speak to me through His creation.
Symbolism in the sun rise. That’s where I sought His message. I imagine the dark clouds represent the darkness of any human’s sin and then the crimson red represents Jesus blood that when placed with our sin makes us not guilty and allows us to grow in a relationship with God.
Now @ 7:41 half of the face of the sun is visible. The whole sky is a light blue with wispy clouds scattered all over it. The accent color changed. The clouds were crimson then became peach and now they are white. I don’t know why there is a peach color always present in a sunrise and sunset. I’m sure there is a scientific explanation.
