My wife and I recently visited our youngest daughter and family in the greater Vancouver area of British Columbia, Canada. One evening, returning from an outing, my son-in-law mentioned what a clear night it was and how many planets are visible with the naked eye.
I am not a stargazer, so I asked him what he meant. He pulled out his phone and pointed it toward a specific section of the sky. His app identified two lights in the sky by name; they were nearby planets. Then he turned another way, and the app identified still more planets and stars.

That night, as I reread Genesis Chapters 1 and 2, I reflected anew on the greatness of our Creator God. A humble humility grips the honest soul who even begins to grasp our great God’s unfathomable majesty and might.
The Majesty of Our Mighty God
David tried to express this celestial reality in the words he wrote in Psalm 8:
When I look up into the night skies and see the work of your fingers—the moon and the stars you have made—I cannot understand how you can bother with mere puny man, to pay any attention to him! And yet you have made him only a little lower than the angels and placed a crown of glory and honor upon his head. You have put him in charge of everything you made; everything is put under his authority: all sheep and oxen, and wild animals too, the birds and fish, and all the life in the sea. O Jehovah, our Lord, the majesty and glory of your name fills the earth (Ps. 8:3-9, TLB).
