I watched a documentary about the Universe with my mom when I was in Toronto and it was very interesting. It was very fascinating because the Universe to me can’t be anything short of awe and wonder.
God created everything with a purpose, even the mysteries of the Universe. I believe He made it and allowed us to see what we can with our telescopes simply for us to get a taste of how great He is. Also, the veil of the Universe speaks of the veil we have with God, a mystery we will never fully uncover. The Universe is a tangible sign for us of His greatness. Nothing else can give us the idea of it more than the limitlessness of time and space.
Then I started to meditate on the Maker of the Universe. God Himself. Today’s readings reminded me that God is Love, and since God created time and space, it was out of sheer Love. Hate, selfishness, vanity, greed, nothing else created all created things but Love. Since Love created all things, truly nothing is more powerful than the force of Love, and truly “what unites us is stronger than what divides us.”
Thus it is mind-boggling and amazing to know that “if we love one another, God remains in us, and his love is brought to perfection in us.” (1 John 4). As limitless we think the Universe is, truly even more vast and limitless is the love of God. Truly we should never underestimate the creative power that is in us, and the consequences of that Truth in our lives!
His Love is truly beyond infinity and that Love is in us!
God, thank You for loving me first. You’re Love is beyond all thought and comprehension but You have revealed it to us through Your Son. Thank you for showing us how to Love. May we love like You. Amen.
