Poem Title:
Poem
Today is Good Friday around the world, which even non-Christians respect, or know about. It is also the first time in history that online worshippers during Easter , outnumber in-person Church worship, and overwhelmingly so. So, imagine my amazement just now, (6:30pm South African time, or 18h30 military time. I saw what my eyes could not get my mind to accept. One star was nothing less than a CROSS! This cross seems to fit a box, and is more "orange-ish" than the rest of the sky's blue stars. I looked for a moon, even behind clouds, to see if there is a lunar explanation. I rent a cottage at a non-profit Old Age home in the Eastern Cape Province. I could not get anyone out of their rooms (under shutdown procedures anyway), to verify what I was see-ing. Could I have imagined it? It is possible, but unlikely. I took my glasses on and off. but this is a sight I have never seen in American or in African skies. A veritable CROSS as if my LORD is assuring us that He is in control of events, and all the Earth's outcomes. I did raise my hands in worship, and thanked the LORD for this wonderful gift. I will google later on to see if others in South Africa noticed this wondrous phenomenon. Praise be to Jesus, the author and finisher of my Faith. Shalom shalom and Holiday Blessings to all. Certified as true, Anil S. Deo, Ph.D. April 10th, 2020.
