Easter and the Cosmos.

Looking on the official hubble telescope website on the evening before easter morning and I am feeling overwhelmed...

The Bible says that all things were made by Jesus and for Jesus (Colossians 1:17).
The One who made all the universe died for me, and I don't know how to build a house.
What is man that God thinks of him? And what is man that the Creator would die for them while they were yet enemies? What a precarious position are the enemies of God in after looking at pictures of His deep space creation. Who is like the Lord?

Check out Christ's work. (By the way...each one of those little yellow disks are galaxys which contain millions of stars and solar systems) The caption explains some more.
Star Cluster

Abell 1689 is one of the most massive galaxy clusters known. The gravity of its trillion stars, plus dark matter, acts like a 2-million-light-year-wide "lens" in space. The gravitational lens bends and magnifies the light of galaxies far behind it.
