“The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament showeth His handiwork.” -Psalm 19:1
Do you want to see how our Earth, that tiny blue marble in the solar system, compares to other bodies in the Universe?

Try to imagine the truly awesome, mind-boggling Being who created all this — this unimaginably vast Universe that our puny human pea-brain can’t even begin to grasp or comprehend.
It is said that when St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274), the towering intellect and theologian, was near death, he was given a glimpse of the Godhead. Humbled and awed, he whispered, referring to all of the many and brilliant works he had written in his lifetime: “All is straw.”
No wonder our Lord Jesus the Christ, the Second Person of the Triune Godhead who humbled Himself by incarnating as vulnerable body and flesh, instructed us that:
“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:16)
