I'm sure I don't have to remind you that our planet is very,very small,and when we come to consider the vastness of the the universe,very,very small does not describe it.The universe is made of galaxies,how many galaxies are there?,we do not know the exact number,but there could be between ioo billion and 2 trillion. Our galaxy is called the ,'Milky Way',and within that there are 100-400 billion stars,100 billion planets.If one studies the universe it is to say the least overwhelming,it really is very difficult to take it in,it truly is incomprehensible.Here is the amazing truth that is also mind blowing, God made it all, but He made a special planet which we call earth,it is unique, in His eyes it is the most important of all the planets in the universe,he made it beautiful,and He made it for us human beings to live in.We were the crowning glory of His creation,we are different from all other creatures,for we were made in the image of God. The crew of Apollo 8 described this planet,''as the most beautiful thing there was to see in all the heavens''.But a disaster of monumental importance occured ,we sinned,and everything changed, this little planet was infected by a virus called sin,from space it looks lovely,but that is deceptive, a darkness had decended on this planet.But God had a plan personified in the person of Jesus who make us fallen human being, new creations ,and through His his death on the cross, would bring spiritual life into all those who would trust Him as their Saviour.Eventually He will make a new creation a new heaven and a new earth, free from the absence of sin,where we will reign with Him for all eternity.
'Where will you spend eternity?'
