Hubble CROSS-ing The Great Divide
Hubble Sees aCROSS The Event Horizon Into The SingularityWe’re going on a stunning journey, surveying all the wonders He has created. Thanks to the Hubble telescope, we can ‘virtually’, travel millions of light years from here, to see what a distant black hole has in common with our own DNA!
Above the structure of a black hole.
An earlier mmm post asked us if we felt small yet, and showed just how BIG our Heavenly Father is.
https://www.minimannamoments.com/dare-feel-small/
Its something that we should remind ourselves of on a regular basis; as it keeps everything in our lives in its correct perspective. Because…
whatever the problem is and how huge it seems, it will pale in comparison to what is out there in the heavens where God is.
Ps 33:13-14 The Lord looketh from heaven; He beholdeth all the sons of men. From the place of His habitation He looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.
Our situations will not seem so insurmountable after we look at these pictures and we will realize that God is BIG enough to handle anything and that we can overcome all obstacles together.
We looked at the relative size of the universe and our solar system,the Milky Way galaxy and at our place within it.
The pictures below are to scale! and YES the big yellow one is our sun, our star. The sun is 93 million miles from earth, it takes 499 seconds, (about 8 mins) for light to reach us.
and if we think that is BIG just look at this…
and Betelgeuse is small compared to Antares and Antares is tiny compared to VV Cephei!Betelgeuse can be located in the night sky NNW of Orion’s Belt As earth turns at night a long exposure camera records the tracks of the stars in the heavens above.
WOW! HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD
God cannot be contained. He is omnipresent, omniscient and omnipotent, everywhere all at once. Not constrained by time or location there are no limitations for Him. He is not bound by our three-dimensional parameters or our five senses.He is pure spirit, pure life, pure light, pure love, purity itself… manifested as HOLINESS… (Kadosh in Hebrew).A Holy, perfect, infinitesimal being, comprising spirit and light, beyond our finite understanding.
In Him was life; and the life was the light of men. John 1:4
This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 1John1:5
And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof. Rev 21:23
We attempt to quantify His attributes and character and draw some conclusions from His words about Himself. Our human senses, abilities and descriptions are too incomplete and will never do Him justice. He exists outside of our known 3 dimensions of length, breadth and height, (4 if you include dimension of time and 5 if we add the dimension of the spiritual realm). Mathematicians, scientists and physicists project their ideas and question everything; theorizing that there may possibly be as many as 11 dimensional layers, realms and parallel dimensions.
Col 1 :15-17 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.From the vast universe to the feathers on this beautiful bird. Picture sent to us by M.E.
The fabric of space and time is still an unknown, (to us). However there is One who does know because He created it all. He is ‘THE‘ math genius, scientist, engineer, physicist and IT technician and everything else, all rolled into one.
We know that the closer you get to traveling at the speed of light, everything slows down. Then at the speed of light.. time literally stands still. If God IS LIGHT, then by definition, He exists at the speed of light!
God exists at the speed of light where time stands still and He calls it Eternity, we call it Heaven!
Mass or weight of any object increases exponentially the faster it moves and the scriptures declare, the exceeding and eternal weight of glory or light of His presence, His Shekinah. 2 Cor 4:17He has all the answers and one day we will too but for now, our man-made telescopes and microscopes reveal a partial view.1 Cor. 13:12 For now we see through a glass, darkly.
They give us a minuscule window into some of the most astonishing details that God has placed within His creation. There is nowhere beyond His reach.
If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. Ps 139:8
He stretched out the heavens and named the stars
Is 42:5 Thus saith God the Lord, He that created the heavens, and stretched them out; He that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; He that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein: Is. 45:12 I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.
Jer. 10:12 He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion.
Within the known universe and also within our own bodies – heaven is within us. Maybe we can add another dimension and layer of understanding to ‘the kingdom of God being within us’??
Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you. Luke 17:21 KJV
Are the building blocks of our very existence planted deep within our DNA, having its source deep in the universe that God created?
Ps 33:6-9 By the Word of the Lord were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the BREATH OF HIS MOUTH. He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: He layeth up the depth in storehouses. Let all the earth fear the Lord: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him. For He spake, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast.So then are we made of stars too? For the same God who breathed out stars at the moment of Genesis creation; also breathed into our forefathers the very same breath of His Eternal Essence.
Think of it …
We serve the God who breathed out stars when He spoke.
Stars are in His mouth. The breath of God is filled with stars and galaxies. When God breathes, He breathes out LIFE and when He breathed life into Adam, He breathed into him the stuff of stars.
Ps 139:13-14 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
This is what our physical bodies are made up of:
Eternity is surely within our hearts. Ecclesiastes 3:11
He has made everything beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted eternity [a sense of divine purpose] in the human heart [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end.
He has made everything appropriate in its time. He has also put eternity in their hearts, but man cannot discover the work God has done from beginning to end

AMP
We need to remember within the immense vastness of untold galaxies and the myriad of distant universes; He sees every one of us and knows our down sitting and up rising. Ps 139:2
May these facts and pictures lift our spirits fuel our faith and remind us that nothing is impossible for him. Matt 19:26Nothing is too big to overwhelm Him and nothing is too small for him to ignore and not be concerned with Ps 139:11
Every hair on our head is numbered (Luke 12:7), in the same way, every star is counted Ps 147:4.
God is BIG and each of us, the apple of His eye (Ps. 17:8) He loves us with an everlasting love.(Jer. 31:3)
Ps 33:6-9. By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth. He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses. Let all the earth fear the Lord: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him. For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.
We are inside the small red circle on the one arm of the spiral of the galaxy we call the Milky Way.
This is only a small part of the galaxy that we see and call the milky way. close up of lower section of previous photoIf we look at the other nine planets in our solar system around our star, the Sun, this is how BIG the sun is. However to get a better understanding of the size not only of our star at the enormity of the god with love and serve, here are some other stars /suns just a few light years from here!if you look up at the night sky, here it is, a tiny dot! Zooming in with the help of Hubble…
It’s the Whirlpool GalaxyHubble sends back jaw dropping imagesas the Whirlpool Galaxy is
seen sitting perpendicular to earth 31 million light years away
Some enLIGHTening facts about the Whirlpool galaxy
As Our Heavenly Father spoke and said ‘Light Be’, ‘Yhee Or’. Light came out of the Creators mouth traveling at 186,000 miles per second.
This will make your head spin:
How far light travels in 1 year = 1 light year
and 1 light year is = to 5.88 trillion miles!
If we wanted to get to the Whirlpool galaxy we need to multiply 31 million x 5.88 trillion miles! Or travel at 186,000 miles per second for 31 million years.
The Whirlpool galaxy contains 3,000 billion stars and is one of hundreds of billions of other galaxies in the known universe!
Now for the really incredible facts!
The Whirlpool Galaxy also called Galaxy M51At its center Hubble found a black hole (four-frame comparison) Hubble Space Telescope provides a detailed look at the core of the giant spiral galaxy M51. These images, taken at different wavelengths of light, reveal complex structure and detail in the galaxy’s core, which is thought to hide a massive black hole.Hubble.org sent back THIS IMAGE of the center of the black hole in Whirlpool galaxy!
WOW! 31,000,000 light years away is the image of the agent of our salvation!
Furthermore…
WE ARE EACH PERSONALLY MARKED BY MAJESTY.
Our DNA is 6 feet long contains 3 billion parts, enough to go to moon and back.
It would take 96 years to read the description contained in the DNA of each individual. We are built from one cell and everyone is unique.
Ps 139:13-14 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
16 cells at 3 days old
In our DNA, scientists have found a cell adhesion protein molecule located in the ‘extracellular matrix’, These are the sheets of protein that form the substate of all internal organs and is also called the ‘basement membrane’.
They called the cell adhesion protein LAMININ.
Laminin is vital to making sure overall body structures hold together.
Why is this important?
Don’t be concerned with the scientific language. Simply see what Laminin looks like under a powerful electron microscope.
Laminin holds everything together,
as a cell adhesion molecule it’s the rebar of the human body.
There are literally millions of crosses holding us together and preventing us from falling apart! WOW!! ONLY OUR CREATOR Father could have designed us to be held together by the crosses in our DNA and at the same time placed a cross millions of light years way off in His universe.
Now how big was that problem?
Know this for certain, the same Heavenly Father who planned all this, has a plan for us and will bring the answers to our problems and needs.People travel all around the world to wonder at the elevation of the mountains to gasp at the height of the huge waves of the sea and gaze upon the vast open oceans with shoreless horizons. They marvel at the long and winding courses of the rivers and their secret sources from inner earth. Stare in wonder at the beauty of flora and fauna and all living creatures in their manifold splendor. They are speechless at the vast compass of the circular motions of the stars in the heavens… BUT they pass by themselves, and don’t even notice the complexity and wonder of the body, in which we can experience all that our senses are continually feeding to our brain.
In reality, we all see God, every day. We simply fail to recognize Him, as He is looking back at us from His creation, in which we live.The intricacies of our humanity, we are His creation, formed from the elements of the ground upon which we walk.
We are fearfully and wonderfully made knit together in the womb of the morning, in love, mercy and grace.
Jeremiah writes that He knew us before we were fully formed.He made peace with the blood of His cross, He is the star breather, the sin bearer amongst all His other attributes AND HE IS THE ONE WHO LOVES AND CARES FOR EACH ONE OF US.THANK YOU FATHER IN JESUS NAME!
TODA AVINU YESHUA HA MASHIACH. HASHEM
