Glass - useful stuff!

I think my talk this morning went quite well.
Although it nearly blew up when I got the pages in the wrong order!
Someone was smiling down on me because hardly anyone noticed.

As we were driving home the sun was blazing in through the car windows. It was great to feel the heat during these cold days.

It's funny stuff glass. It lets the heat from the sun through and keeps the heat in the car too! And being able to see through the glass helps the driver to drive!

Glass has many other uses too. We use it to make bottles and jars and glasses for drinking from. It bends the light so we can make lenses for glasses (i.e. spectacles) and telescopes. It's great for making fish tanks for use at home and at the aquarium. It's even a fundamental part of the ubiquitous microchip.

All from stuff that you can hardly see.
Sometimes you can't even see it at all.
But just because we can't see it doesn't mean it's not there.

There's lots of things in life that we can't see but we know they are there.
Little things like electrons. Big things like galaxies.
And I'm not even going to mention Dark Matter - oops!

So why do some people have a hang up about believing in God.
OK, so we can't see God. But we can know Him.
There is evidence. Historical and present-day.
There are witnesses. From long ago and today.

So don't let the little matter of not seeing prevent you from receiving the good things that God promises to those who believe in Jesus Christ.
