James 3:3 When we put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we can turn the whole animal.

Little things can make very big differences in this world – just like guiding a horse with a bit and tackle, or steering a boat with a rudder…

God may have made a huge universe and placed the earth in an inconspicuous place in one of the galaxies, but we are here to make a very big difference!

God entrusted this world in our hands, knowing we would eventually want to get in space crafts and fly off to other parts; we are making a huge difference – but He still gives us the opportunity!

Job 26:7 He spreads out the northern skies over empty space; he suspends the earth over nothing.

One of the most amazing things I find it the earth is mostly covered in water, and yet the water does not fly off or tip over the edge!

The earth itself is a great big ball floating in space and the water is clinging to it – held together by forces we are still getting to understand.

When a person in space spills some water, it clings to itself and forms a ball which floats in the spacecraft (assuming there is no gravity).

God has done some pretty amazing things with this universe!

Proverbs 8:29 when he gave the sea its boundary so the waters would not overstep his command, and when he marked out the foundations of the earth.

Have you ever watched sand when it comes into contact with water- it seems to melt and flows away – yet God makes sure the oceans do not wash away our continents!

I know we do have serious coastal erosion in parts of the world, but the continents have been around for a very long time and will continue to be so.

God’s promises are just the same – they may seem to melt away in some people’s minds, but they have been there for a very long time and will continue to be there!
