Once in a Lifetime.

God is in control.

Huge 'star-quake' rocks Milky Way

"Had this happened within 10 light-years of us, it would have severely damaged our atmosphere and would possibly have triggered a mass extinction."

Every situation in our lives is designed to give us a greater knowledge and understanding of our infinite God. This explosion did not rock my life last night, in fact, I didn't even know it happened until just a coupla minutes ago. Equally, your life probably wasn't changed by the massive 'star quake' the likes of which has not occured near us in 400 years. But, the amazing truth that we must grasp from seeing this groaning in the heavens is that God is in control. Our every breath is in His hands. Our life on earth is completely ordained and soverignly moved by His Wonderful Hand. By the word of His mouth, He spoke the worlds into existence, and He can, by that same word bring destruction. And He will by any word or any judgment still be completely good. Let that thought revolutionize you. I invite you to worship the Savior, Creator, Controller and Sustainer Jesus Christ with me in these verses.

Our God is in the heavens;he does all that he pleases.
Psalm 115:3

The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.
Job 1:21

For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities--all things were created through him and for him. And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together.
Colossians 1:16-17

He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power.
Hebrews 1:3

bringing others to the greatness of the cross...
