Yesterday I started watching a documentary series on Netflix called – The Universe. While the series definitely reflects a secular view of the Universe, I can’t help but marvel at the intricate detail and purpose God put into everything beyond our planet. One thing they shared was that the planet Jupiter and the other gas giants often serve as impact zones for rogue comets and asteroids that might otherwise make it to the interior solar system and impact Earth. As I watched that it was almost like God was winking at me and saying, “I have taken care of all things…even asteroids.” The producers of the show, of course, attributed Jupiter’s shielding of Earth as a happy accident of evolution, but I know better. When you look at the vast universe with a biblical worldview, it becomes that much more amazing, because our God is as amazing as it gets!
