The Greatest Star

“Then He brought him outside and said, ‘Look now toward heaven, and count the stars if you are able to number them.’ And He said to him, ‘So shall your descendants be,’” Genesis 15.5.

We can see God's greatness not only by the amount of stars in the sky, but by the size of each one of.

Some stars are five million times larger than the Sun, and they are not the largest stars out there. According to scientists, one star is one billion times larger than the Sun. All these massive stars harmoniously exist in what appears to human eyes as nothingness. And yet, there is a power that supports them in that nothingness: the Word of God.

I believe that Abraham's descendants will not only be numerous, but will also be as great as each of these stars.

God wants to do big things in the lives of those who obey Him like Abraham obeyed. And just as the Earth is too small for one of these immense stars, the Earth will be too small for the children of Abraham.

The God of Abraham is so great that He has to bend down to look at the sky, Earth and universe, in spite of the universe’s vastness.

“Who is like the LORD our God, who dwells on high, who humbles Himself to behold the things that are in the heavens and in the earth?” Psalm 113.5,6.

With this in mind, how can we regard family, financial, love life or physical problems as big?

Those with the same vision as Abraham are not afraid to say: "Here I am."

They are sure that God has more to give them, than they have to give Him.
