Verses from 1 Corinthians

有天上的形体,也有地上的形体;天上形体的荣光是一样,地上形体的荣光又是一样。太阳有太阳的荣光,月亮有月亮的荣光,星星有星星的荣光,而且每一颗星的荣光也都不同。
哥林多前书 15:40-41 

“There are also heavenly bodies and earthly bodies, but the glory of the heavenly is one, and the glory of the earthly is another. There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for star differs from star in glory.”
1 Corinthians 15:40-41 

Paul wrote that the sun has one kind of splendor, the moon another, and the stars in their differing sizes and brightness, still another (1 Corinthians 15:40–41). The varying wonders of the night sky, however, are only a hint of the differences we see in the glory of God. While the cosmos stretches our mind with its evidence of unlimited space and power, the heart of God contains a far greater wonder. Beyond the unbounded expanse, colors, and wonders of the cosmos is the hidden glory of the love of God on the cross.

Father, 

when we consider the universe Your hands have made and the face that bore the spit and fists of those who mocked Jesus, what is man that You are mindful of us?
