"WHO IS LIKE THE LORD OUR GOD, WHO……" — JS Boegl
"WHO IS LIKE THE LORD OUR GOD, WHO DWELLS ON HIGH, WHO HUMBLES HIMSELF TO BEHOLD THE THINGS THAT ARE IN THE HEAVENS AND IN THE EARTH? (Psalm 113:5,6) Who is this Being Who must diminish Himself in order to BEHOLD 300 billion galaxies? (Our galaxy alone is 200,000 light years across. If King David were to have blown out a torch in 1000 B.C., people on the other side of the Milky Way would still be waiting - and waiting for another 197,000 years before they'd see the light go out.) And there's 300 Billion of these things out there!!! Sometimes we simply need to tremble at the presence of a God like this."
