It is good to put things in perspective. Today’s video compares the size of various stars in the known and measured universe…then placed next to earth.
Only one response. Worship.
In these last days God has spoken to us by his Son [Jesus], whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world. All things were made through [Jesus], and without [Jesus] was not anything made that was made. For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him.
There is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we live; and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we live. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.
[Hebrews 1:2; John 1:3; Colossians 1:16; 1 Corinthians 8:6; Colossians 1:17]
Why You Don’t Want to be the Exception
What is man, that You should exalt him,
That You should set Your heart on him,
Job 7:17 (NKJV)
We are so insignificant in the grand scheme of the universe, and yet Jesus sacrificed himself to reconcile us with God.
Outstanding! Do you remember when Shirley McClaine (sp?) used to claim she was God? The story is told that God turned to the angel Michael and said, “Hey Mike, come take a look at this!” It was Shirley jumping up and down on the beach, saying “I am God” over and over. Her voice was that of a mouse, if we had been listening.
Wow …. perspective is right. How much Earth pales in comparison to the other planets God spoke into existence. And yet, the only human life lives and breathes on planet Earth. That’s chilling, actually.
Agree!
Wow!
And the God who made those stars cares about the hairs falling from the head of whoever made that video. Oh what a Saviour.
There is no getting around this adding ‘a god,’ as cults do. Keeping this (oh, and all Scripture…), hide in your hearts. God is our treasure. And we are God’s treasure. Amazing. He who created all (and beyond–who knows what is past our universe?) is Jesus.
and.. amen.
