2%. It doesn't sound like much, to be sure. But step out of doors at night this March and the fullness and brightness of the moon will overpower you! We haven't seen the moon this close to the earth in over 2 decades. Best to recognize and take full advantage of the opportunity to enjoy its beauty.
Hanging low, hovering just over the edge of the road, is an orange orb the size of some massive UFO, drawing you into its mysterious scenario, a twisted dream, a wonderful adventure.
Surely on a night like this the fairies fly, the demons dance and the reindeer skim the horizon looking for good children to reward. Or at very least the magic lifts the heavy spell of weary hearts and smooths the worn out ruts of life's paths. This feeling, this sensation, this is what the Spirit of God can do for real in our lives. A moon is a mere shadow of potential without actual powers. But love and hope work the wonders we crave.
And once in awhile, we are reminded that there is so much more possible than we dare dream. Even if the moon is only a scant 2% closer to the earth than normal. Just imagine how magnificent the moon would be if it perchance stepped 7% closer! The sky could not contain the majesty.
