    Something just came to me and I started doing some research- it is regarding the birth of stars. There is a parallel between the birth of a star in outer-space and the birth of a human here on earth. A star is born in a huge cloud of gas in space called a nebula. This functions as a “womb” for stars to be created. The “womb” provides the raw materials needed for the formation of a star. A star is formed when a ball of gas condenses into itself and begins to get bigger and bigger due to it's ever-increasing gravitational pull. The core temperature gets higher and higher due to friction of the gas particles running into each other until it gets high enough for nuclear reactions to occur. In this stage there is a parallel to a human baby, like the human baby (embryo) being knit together in the “womb” as the cells divide, the star also continually gets bigger and bigger as it feeds off of gases and the core temperature climbs even more. When the core temperature of the forming star reaches 10 million degrees Celsius nuclear fusion begins and like a human baby, a star is born! This newborn star is called a protostar. The protostar is then ejected from the stellar “womb” (the nebula) out into space and begins it's life as a mature star! The life cycle of a star and that of a human being are seemingly totally unrelated but there is a strong parallel between the two! This is God's fingerprints on His creation!

    Interesting comparison... Brother Glen:)

    Psalm 139:14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
