Why the Universe is So Big

It has been a long time since I have posted.  I just haven't really had time to put the thought into writing a post.  I just had a thought today though that seems worthy of a post.  Maybe no one will ever see it but it is my way of putting down my thoughts.
My thought was prompted by Louie Giglio actually.  I was watching his talk, "Indescribable" and in it he talks about the size of the universe.  Some people think that the size of the universe is too big for just one little planet in one little galaxy to have people - that it is arrogant for us to think that we are the only intelligent life in the universe.  Louie puts it well though when he says that maybe the size of the universe isn't about us at all.  Maybe the vastness of the universe is to display the hugeness, the majesty, the glory of God.  So anyway, that sparked a thought...
It seems that God makes big, huge things to provide a backdrop and a context for His particular action in one small part, so that his particular action in that area is made all the more conspicuous and special.  God made the vastness of the universe, billions upon billions of galaxies each with billions upon billions of stars - all to showcase his special action of creating life on one small planet orbiting one small star in all that vastness.  On that planet, God created myriads upon myriads of living creatures, millions of different species of all different shapes and sizes - all to showcase His special action of forming one living creature in His own image and giving him, mankind, a living soul.  God caused millions of humans to grow and spread over the earth, and out of those millions He chose one man, Abraham, on whom to set His special blessings.  God separated the people into nations and tribes and languages, thousands upon thousands of people groups - all to showcase His special action in redeeming His chosen people, Israel, from among them.  Examples abound.  And God continues to showcase His special action on a small portion of the vastness of His universe and His world.  He has set his love on the people He has chosen, He has redeemed them by the blood of His own Son, and He has called them out from among the billions of humanity to be His people and His church.  All of His elect have reason, even obligation, for humble, awe-filled praise to our God.
