"He created the stars also."

Stated so matter-of-factly that in creating the little things here on Earth, God also created the beautiful and imcomprehensibly huge heavens above.


Last night I spent some time out observing this footnote of creation with my telescope. It was an wonderfully clear and steady night. The Cassini division in the rings of Saturn were easily seen, along with other features of the great ringed planet.

When I consider your heavens,
the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which you have set in place,
what is man that you are mindful of him,
the son of man that you care for him?
Psalm 8:3,4
