Psalm 103: 11-12 [NKJV]
For as the heavens are high above the earth,
So great is His mercy toward those who fear Him;
As far as the east is from the west,
So far has He removed our transgressions from us.

I think these verses are amazing. Before mankind even knew about the north and south poles, God had directed David to write this psalm. North and south are fixed points, east and west are not! If you fly north around the earth, halfway there, you will reach the south. You can fly east all the way around the earth and never reach the west, and vice versa. The east and west never meet.
How awesome is that?
