The God of Creation

In the old days, ancient astronomers acted like they could actually count the number of stars in the sky. They actually thought that the number of stars in our sky was in the thousands. They were, obviously, proved wrong with the advent of telescopes. At that point, now there were clusters of stars called galaxies. Actual clusters with stars of their own. Now there are so many stars in our universe, that it overwhelms our simple, finite minds. As humans, we have things in our lives that we memorize by name. People, objects, even song lyrics. But our memory can only take us so far. Because our minds are confined to the brain we have inside our human heads. And even then, it is said that we only use about 10% of our brains. As for God, well… He is omniscient and omnipresent. Which means He is all knowing and He is also everywhere at once. A description that can only be given to a being outside of creation. The one and only true God. The God of creation. So if He created everything and is all-knowing and ever-present, naming each heavenly object and body is nothing to Him. Psalm 147:5 says “Great is our Lord and abundant in strength; His understanding is infinite.” In Matthew, we are taught “But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.” As well as in Hebrews 4:13 “And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are open and laid bare to the eyes of Him with whom we have to do.” So it is no surprise that our God, the God of all that exists, knows the number of stars in the sky as well as their names. Our God. The God of wonder is an awesome God.
