I've been watching "Cosmos." Both the Sagan version in the 80s, and the Neil deGrasse Tyson version today. And since they both were written by Ann Druyan, Sagan's widow, they both demonstrate how immense the universe is.

In this immenseness, by comparison, even our sun and solar system are invisible specks. Then we have the earth, an even smaller invisible speck, and finally us humans, less than an invisible speak of dust ; completely nothing by comparison with the immense universe.

And yet, as you say, "God loves us. God loves us. God loves us."

And that blows my mind.

And if we, by comparison to the universe, are less than an invisible speck of dust, what do you think our brain is? Is it any wonder we're all a little tetched in the head? Our thoughts are even smaller.

And I say: wonders of wonders, mysteries of mysteries ... not only is the universe mysterious, but so is God ... and so is God's love.
