Have We Any Idea?

Have we any idea?

No.

This is beyond human reason and comprehension.

93 million miles distant…using our best understanding, say far away.

Earth’s star, the sun…our solar energy source for life.

Sunrise and sunset are incredibly predictable, exceedingly constant.

Have we any idea?

How hot is 10,000 degrees Fahrenheit?

This is the estimated temperature of the sun’s surface.

Hydrogen is a familiar word.

The sun is mostly hydrogen.

Have we any idea?

Estimation says 1.3 million earths would fit in the sun!

But we can watch sunrise.

See the incomprehensibly hot, huge star move above the horizon.

 

 

It bursts forth like a radiant bridegroom after his wedding.

It rejoices like a great athlete eager to run the race.

The sun rises at one end of the heavens and follows its course to the other end. Nothing can hide from its heat.

The instructions of the Lord are perfect,

reviving the soul. The decrees of the Lord are trustworthy,

making wise the simple. Psalm 19:5-7
