Okay, this reminds me of how one time when I was a teenager, I once made a grumpy comment implying that God was the one who "does my nails"--like, they are decorated interesting & with fine detail work.
The ironic thing is that a big part of my motive for saying that at that particular moment was to impress a boy who was in the room with my wit and my unconventional take!
Also, lol at "Just in the last 2 days, I saw a movie!" "He it is who makes the clouds rise at the end of the earth, who makes lightnings for the rain and brings forth the wind from his storehouses." :)
Oh! As you were writing about God as the good designer of dramatic scenes, Who summons thunder and lightning (so who needs a movie?) ...I had been talking about God as the good designer of the details of my appearance--specifically fingernails. (so who needs nail polish?)
I was grumpy because other girls had mentioned painting their nails, (or possibly going to a nail stylist) and I didn't paint my nails so I didn't have anything to contribute to the convo! (I have painted them since then: I like pretty colors. But not the work of maintenance required to paint my nails more than once or twice a year.)
That makes sense! Painting nails is one of those things I try to be interested in, because my friends like it, but really I can't sit still long enough for it to dry anyway.

I have to admit, that would have made it into the post, had I thought of it.
I don't really understand about the nails - or why that comment was grumpy

Love the poster. Should be up in Times Square.
The night sky away from city lights on a moonless night is a great movie too.
Don’t even get me started on the Northern Lights.
