Amazing Picture of a Star

Friday, June 20th, 2008

Picture of Star on Curt Gunz websiteI’ve mentioned before that looking at the stars is one of my favorite ways to think about God; how great He is; how big He is; and if He can take care of the whole universe, then He can take care of me.

Well, I came across this photo. It is a Hubble Space Telescope image of the star V838 Monocerotis. NASA says “V838 Monocerotis is located about 20,000 light-years away from Earth in the direction of the constellation Monoceros, placing the star at the outer edge of our Milky Way galaxy.”

You can click on the picture on the right. But the image is HUGE and will take a while to load on your computer. You will probably have to use your computer’s scroll bars to see this cool picture of the star.

Whenever I see things like this I think of the Bible verse:

The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.

Day after day they pour forth speech;
night after night they display knowledge.

There is no speech or language
where their voice is not heard.

Psalm 19:1-3 (NIV)

Just wanted to share this with you.

Soil Experiment Growing Pinto Beans

Saturday, June 21st, 2008

Pinto Bean to Grow for ExperiementWhen God created the world He made everything just right.

Think about these things:

If Earth were just a little closer to the sun we would burn up and water would vaporize

If the earth did not tilt on its axis there would not be seasons and things could not grow.

If there were just a little more of certain gases or a little less of others in our atmosphere we could not breath.

If our soil had just a little more or a little less of some chemicals plants could not grow.

This project (adapted from TryScience.org) will show what would happen if there was just a little more salt in soil. (more…)

Cute Duck Picture

Cute Duck Picture

This cute duck reminds me how silly it would be for a duck to worry. This duck is going to be able to swim just fine. God cares for it and takes care of it.

Just think how funny the duckling looks as it is learning to swim. It does not need a swim ring. It can swim free and easy because that is how God made it.

But, did you know that people can be just as funny, goofy and silly? We worry about things that God has promised to take care of. When we worry about something God has already promised to take care of it is as silly as a duck being afraid of the water.




“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?

“And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Matthew 6:25-34 (NIV)

The reason this is called Nehemiah’s Wall is because in the Bible Nehemiah sets out to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem after the Babylonian captivity.

Then I said to them, “You see the trouble we are in: Jerusalem lies in ruins, and its gates have been burned with fire. Come, let us rebuild the wall of Jerusalem, and we will no longer be in disgrace.”

Nehemiah 2:17 (NIV)
