Welcome God every morning: Read 'A Slice of Infinity' (~5 minutes) The email you're receiving is a 'snippets' version containing a quick synopsis of the 5 minute reading. This synopsis is posted to the COUGARS Daily blog and the blog generates the email to your inbox. I encourage you to read the 'A Slice of Infinity Article AND these daily snippets. Then, consider sharing your gift of faith by posting a comment on the COUGARS Daily blog.

Verses Pertinent to todays reading: "Then your children will ask, ‘What does this ceremony mean?’ And you will reply, ‘It is the Passover sacrifice to the Lord, for he passed over the houses of the Israelites in Egypt. And though he struck the Egyptians, he spared our families.’” When Moses had finished speaking, all the people bowed down to the ground and worshiped." (Exodus 12:26-27).

A Slice of Infinity snippets: "...I often wonder if, in the spirit of the information age, we boast in the promise of endless and instant answers, all the while failing to notice that we are too soon interrupting questions with explanation. Perhaps an abundance of answers has stifled our teens' ability to probe deeply the truths and mysteries of faith. We seldom look for opportunities to practice talking about the things we cease to wonder at. Our children will ask; in our answers may we not interrupt their inquisitive sense of awe."

Chad's Comments: I have a good friend, Dr. Castle, who teaches Chemistry at the Air Force Academy. In sharing time with his colleagues, who are often very materialistic/naturalistic in their world view, Pat will ask a question regarding a chart of human physiology or some like sort; "are you really telling me that you understand how this all works?" To which, if they are honest, Pat will inevitably get the response, 'no-we don't really understand it'. I think all too often we loose our sense of wonder by offering up an answer that, while it may contain facts, is inadequate in expounding on the awe and wonder of the work of God.
