2012 space astronomical discoveries introduced the biggest map of the universe.
The charts showed more than 1 million galaxies in a total volume of 70 billion cubic light-years.
This is just what our telescopes could see this year. Astronomers think that there are hundreds of billions galaxies in the universe. And the number of galaxies will keep growing as our telescopes get better.
Just to give you an an idea about the size of galaxies: the biggest galaxy ever discovered, which is inside the Abell 2029 cluster, contains 100 trillion stars. That’s 100,000,000,000,000 stars.
These figures are mind boggling.
God, the Creator of the universe, left all His creation and focused on us fallen creatures who are specs on a spec planet called Earth “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16).
God emptied Heaven and offered the most precious gift He has-His Son. The Creator of the universe was born as a babe in a manger to live and die to save you “For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 8:38, 39).
What kind of love is this? “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.” (John 15:13). The human mind can’t fully comprehend this love!
You are the child of God if you choose to “Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God” (1 John 3:1).
Will you ask Him to enter your heart to bless you today?
