Testimony 10/11/05: The Planetarium & The Lightning Room

Ever go to God’s factory and see how the lightning is formed? I’ve never been there either. But I’ve seen how a miniature lightning is formed. A three-meter tall machine in the lightning room at the Science Works Museum did it. With a 20,000-Volt engine, a lightning was created. It zapped. And it was gone. Just that one little jump required that much energy! And I wonder how much energy is needed to create the real lightning that jump kilometers away!

Ever feel so big? So powerful? So rich? So smart? What about this… A tiny dot on earth. No, not even a dot. It was just a speck… a speck that was barely there. A human. I watched it getting smaller and smaller as it moved away from me. It got so small it disappeared as the picture of the earth came into being. The world was still moving away when the moon came into the picture. The sun. The planets. Our solar system. Other solar systems. Then I saw our galaxy. Still other galaxies… I saw the universe in the Planetarium! And the vision of the earth was gone long time ago. How small we are!

And how small we are indeed! What I have now and what I can do now is nothing compared to what God has or what He can do. Surely our God is so big! He is mighty to save.


Isaiah 40:26
"Who created all these? He who brings out the starry host one by one, and calls them each by name. Because of His great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing." (Emphasis mine)
