Consider

Consider the sun, moon, planets, and stars, the distance set between them that keeps them set in motion in an organized and intentional manner.
Consider the air contents on earth: just the right mixture of oxygen, nitrogen, and other chemical elements to allow human life (as well as plant and animal life). Just a slight change in any of the percentages, and life turns into death.
Consider the tilt of the earth, the sipinning motion that keeps us anchored to the earth and provides seasons of life for creation. A slight change and all could burn up, freeze, or be set free from gravity...fun for a moment, perhaps.
"When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the starts, which you have set in place, What is man that you are mindful of him, and the son of man that you care for him?
Yet you have made him a little lower than the heavenly beings and crowned him with glory and honor.
You have given him dominion over the works of your hands; You have put all things under his feet...O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth." Psalm 8:3-6,9

I am overwhelmed that God cares for me, is faithful to me, has made promises that he loves to keep with me, and is committed to restoring me in the midst of bringing the new heavens and new earth to fruition one day soon.
