Relevant Bible Verses:-
1) Genesis 1:16 Then 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.
2) Heb 11:3 By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.
3) Phil 2:15 so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe.

I find it really interesting and facinating how the following pictures are presented:-
Picture 1
Pictures 2
Picture 3
Picture 4
Picture 5
Dr. John Polkinghorne is one of the greatest living writers, theoretical physicist and thinkers on science and religion. A truly renowned world-class scientist turned priest.
In one of his university lectures he presented a cosmic slide in a physics class. He mentioned that there are billion of stars in the sky and if you chose to count them at one per second, it will take you 2,500 years just to count those stars.
I couldn't help but think of a verse in the Bible that says, He made the stars also!
Dr. Polkinghorne mentioned further that when we look at the earlier days of the formation of the world and universe, the expansion and contraction rates had to be so precise and the margin of error so small that it would be like taking aim at a one square inch object at the other end of the universe twenty billion light years away and hitting it bulls-eye!
Simply by just looking at the pictures above and what were mentioned by Dr Polkinghorne, one cannot deny the great power behind the creator of the universe. These have reminded me of the greatness of God. And Bible says that by the mere utterance, God created the universe! How great and poweful God truly is! And we humans think we are all powerful by our little supremacy here on earth controlling a little tribe of nation given to us.
Remember, we don't have authority and power if we surrender all our principles, we merely have an office.

Universe and stars in the sky are telling us the majesty and glory of God. We are so very small and insignificant in size compare to the universe but God loves us so much “even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.” Matt 10:30
