Amazing. Breathtaking. Miraculous. Scientific Wonders. 

All of these words could describe these pictures. 

A quick google search says that, in our galaxy alone, there are 400 billion stars. 400 BILLION. I can't fathom that number. I can't imagine that, if I could stretch my mind as far as it could go. 

Do you know what the Bible says about when God created the stars? 

"And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also."

Genesis 1:16

That's it. Five words, less than 20 words, for billions of stars. As amazing and miraculous and breathtaking as that is, it's not the most wonderful part. 

All of that, spoken of as if it were simply an after thought - 'he made the stars also' - and yet this magnificent God sent His Son - Himself in the flesh - here for someone like me. He allowed His Son to die for me. That will never get old, never be less than spectacular, and will always show me what a good God we have, that cares more than we will ever deserve!
