I've been reading through the Bible and recently read Psalm 19. It reminded me of these amazing pictures we saw on NASA's website:
Saturn: Moons in Transit
"The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows His handiwork. Day unto day utters speech, and night unto night reveals knowledge.
In the Heart of the Tarantula Nebula
There is no speech nor language where their voice is not heard. Their line has gone out through all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.
The Seahorse of the Large Magellanic Cloud
In them He has set a tabernacle for the sun, which is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoices like a strong man to run its race.
The Sun
Its rising is from one end of the heaven, and its circut to the other end; and there is nothing hidden from its heat."
Psalm 19: 1-6

Planetary Nebula NGC 2818
"It is not merely glory that the heavens declare, but the "glory of God," for they deliver to us such unanswerable arguments for a conscious, intelligent, planning, controlling, and presiding Creator, that no unprejudiced person can remain unconvinced by them. The testimony given by the heavens is no mere hint, but a plain, unmistakable declaration; and it is a declaration of the most consistent and abiding kind. Yet for all this, to what avail is the loudest declaration to a deaf man, or the clearest showing to one spiritually blind? God the Holy Ghost must illuminate us, or all the suns in the milky way never will."
From the book The Treasury of David
By Charles H. Spurgeon
