Talk About Humbling...

I had just written the following two posts a few weeks ago to a friend at work. When I listened to Matt Tubbs message, I was reminded of this and felt led to post it:

I just recently read an article about the Hubble telescope. It was down for a little while after a computer malfunctioned. They just got it working again and released a picture of two galaxies that are 440 million light-years away... To give you a better idea of how far away that is: 1 light-year = 5.8 trillion miles away. That’s a lot of zeros!

"Who will you compare Me to, or who is My equal?" asks the Holy One. Look up and see: who created these? He brings out the starry host by number; He calls all of them by name. Because of His great power a
nd strength, not one of them is missing (Isaiah 40:25,26)... not even the ones 2,552,000,000,000,000,000 miles away. We are small!

Further proof that all things are created for His own glory and pleasure. We just happen to get to enjoy it as well.
