Clear Blue Sky

As I traveled from one destination to another today I noticed how incredibly blue and clear the sky looked.  Only an occasional puffy white cloud dotted the sky.  This was such a change from the previous two days with overcast skies and gray clouds hanging around.  There is nothing that can compare to the shades of blue in a cloudless sky.  Have you ever noticed them?  Yes there are different shades - take a moment some time to stand where you have a long distance view of the terrain.  Look straight up in the sky and you will see a darker blue than you will anywhere else in the sky.  Look at the horizon, anywhere that sky and land meet and you will see a lighter shade of blue.  I'm always intrigued by this phenomenon, I've even taken photographs of the sky at different angles to capture the different shades.  It's fun to look at them in sequence because you really see just how many shades of blue there are.  Sky watching and seeing the results in the photographs always reminds me that I have a very creative God and that nothing is impossible for him.  Thank you Lord for creating the sky.
