Psalm 147 verse 4

Who telleth the number of the stars: and calleth them all by their names.

God calls each star by name. The word for name here is the Hebrew word
שׁם - shêm (pronounced - shame)
It means: an appellation, as a mark or memorial of individuality; by implication honor, authority, character: - + base, [in-] fame [-ous], name (-d), renown, report.

I can not even image how many stares there are but God has each one marked and knows the nature of every star.

Janette L Gubala asked(on line), "How many stars are known to be in the sky?"

Hawley answered: There are an estimated 10^10 (10 billion) stars in the Milky Way. There are an estimated 10^10 galaxies in the universe.. (pretty easy to remember so far, huh? ...*grin*) so that makes 10^20 stars total or:

1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

How great is our God?
