The Highest and Deepest Spot in the Universe

The furthest galaxy discovered by spectroscopy is z8_GND_5296. 6 No, that's not an old AOL screen name. It's a galaxy that is 13.8 billion light-years old, or 13.8 billion light-years away. Spatially speaking, it's the highest height. The deepest depth is the Challenger Deep, part of a trench 6.85 miles beneath the U.S. Territorial Island of Guam. From the zero gravity of space to the 1,000-times atmospheric pressure of the deep seas, God's love is present and accounted for. You can't escape it, even if you could escape time and space. His love goes beyond the borders of space, beyond the boundaries of time.
