The difference between heaven and earth is so very vast that there is no example we can use to illustrate it. Our galaxy is called the Milky Way and, according to scientists, in this galaxy to which our solar system belongs there are over 30 million suns. 1½ million earths can be put into one sun, and there are in all about 100,000 galaxies. God put all these 100,000 galaxies together and created heaven. This gives us some idea of the vastness of the heavens. “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmamanr sheweth His handiwork!”exclaims the Psamist (Psa 19:1). God created this vast universe and, side by side, He created the tiny earth in which we are just little specks.Compared to the majesty of the universe, how insignificant is man, and yet God Who could and did create such glory, made man in His own image! He Who created the entire universe also created this puny man. This reveals to us the greatness of God and also His great love for man. “When I consider the heavens, the work of Thy fingers, the moon and the stars which Thou hast ordained; what is man that Thou art mindful of him? And trhe son of man that Thou visitest him?”(Psa 8:4).
How wonderful our God is! Dear reader, what have we to boast about ? The Lord has shown us how much He cares for us. If we have this revelation we will never be worried or concerned about earthly things.
