FEELING SMALL
READ PSALMS 6:1 THROUGH 9:20; ACTS 11:1–18
Travel in space is measured in light years—the time it takes light to travel from one area of the universe to another. Light travels at 186,000 miles per second. There are 31,536,000 seconds in a year. That means light can travel 5,865,696,000,000 miles in one earth year. Scientists estimate the visible universe to be about 28 billion light years across. And that’s just the part we can see.
When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have set in place, what is mankind that You are mindful of them, human beings that You care for them? (Psalm 8:3-4).
The next time you feel insignificant or small, remember that you are important to God. The One who created the infinite universe knows your name. The One who crafted the planets and stars hears your prayers and cares for you. That makes you special.
Prayer Suggestion: Lord, thank You for being a God who cares about all people, even me.
