And it is all the more amazing when we consider the greatness of it all – a typical galaxy contains billions of individual stars. Our own, the Milky Way, contains some 200 billion stars. It’s shaped like a giant spiral, rotating in space, with arms reaching out as on a pinwheel. It is so large that one full rotation of that wheel would take about 250 million years. Unimpressed? How about this – the average distance between galaxies is about 20 million trillion miles; in fact, the closest galaxy to our own is the Andromeda Galaxy, about 12 million trillion miles away. Unimpressed? For every patch of sky the size of the moon, searching deeply, you could observe about a million galaxies.Yet what is even more impressive is that our God is bigger than all of that.
