Deborah-Leigh:
Thank you Joe
Kind of makes me think again of relative v/s absolute. Relative according to man and what is seen and Absolute according to God and the unseen!
Peace to you
Arcturus

I can only confirm that science says light travels @ 186,000 miles per second and that "Light Years" (the amount of space light travels in a year) is the gage in which the vastness of the Universe is measured. If you see a star that is a thousand light years away then the light you are seeing is a thousand years old. So if that star blew up 500 years ago it wont't disappear from the sky for another 500 years.
There are many University or Science sites available to check it out, the sheer vastness of the Universe is mind boggling indeed.

This caused me to think,
Using this same logic, or a twisted version of it; God created the heavens and the earth say oh bout 8000 or 3 billion years ago (insert your favorite number here), what ever your preference may be; then we are living out or seeing what has already been completed.
Genesis 2
1. Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
James 4
14. Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
Peace,
John

Ah the wonders of wonders that I experience each time I visit with you all.
(I want to rent that video, Anne, it sounds like a great movie. And as I had told you before, I got my Mom a star in her name; with the coordinates and info needed for her to try and find it; I had it named Judith (at least in which part of the sky her star resides in) and...she was not impressed. Oh well, to each his own preferance ;) Now that I think about it Anne, this would be a nice present to get Daniel on his next bday as you had recommended, as it will give him alot to ponder on whenever he looks up ::) :o 8)
I'm so glad that this has blessed your heart, Arcturus. It has mine too. I figured that there was something deep that you could share with us here regarding that title; as you usually do. Thanks! :D

Susan,
What movie are you talking about?
Yeah I think Daniel would enjoy that. It is unique and unusual.
Sincerely,
Anne C. McGuire

Anne,
(in Longhorn's words..."DANG IT"... (I say dang it b/c I see now that you never posted that movie on this thread.) The movie that I was asking you the name of was on a dif post I guess; but it's the one that you and your DH watched last week about 'stars' (you know, the one that inspired you to get this star as a birthday present? ) I was just needing to know the name of it so I can go and rent it out. :D thanks. ;)
