Of importance to God

  Of Importance to God

“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.”  Genesis 1:1

On February 14, 1990, NASA at a distance of 6 billion kilometres (3.7 billion miles) had the Voyager 1 space probe take a picture of the Solar system. It showed earth as a pail blue dot smaller than the head of a pin. 

Looking at it we see just how small earth is in the universe. Within the vastness of the universe it seems insignificant. Yet it is everything to those of us who live on it.

Some have said there may be more planets out there in the vastness of the universe that have life. While that may be true such planets are too far away from us to communicate with or to help us in anyway.

It is our planet and our planet alone that is important to us. We have no other place in the universe to live. 

We must also remember that we on this pail blue dot is of importance to God and we who live here. For the Bible which God  has inspired is directed at us. With the sole purpose of pointing us to God. Making it clear in a nutshell the choice we have.

In the gospel of John Jesus is recorded as saying,

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.  

For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.  

Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son". John 3:16-18

So what do you believe?

Please think about it.
