Everything is Just Right!

Have you ever wondered about what would happen if somethings about our earth were different? For example, what would happen if our earth spun a little faster? Here are are some answers:

If our earth was not tilted slightly on it's axis, the equator would be a lot hotter, and there would be a lot more desert lands.

If our earth was less dense, the gravity would be weaker, which would mean less air because we need gravity to hold it on earth. With less air we would be in danger of being hit by meteorites, because the air acts like a shield to burn them up. Less air would also mean a freezing cold planet.

If the earth was more dense, the gravity would be greater, which would stop the waves from breaking on the shore, which would mean less oxygen in the water and the death of the seas.

If our earth was further from the sun we would be frozen, closer and we'd cook. If the moon was larger the tides would be tremendous, smaller and they would disappear. And so on. In the end you can't help feeling grateful that God made everything just right.

The Bible says, "God Himself that formed the earth and made it: He has established it, He created it not in vain, He formed it to be inhabited." Isaiah 45:18
