LIVING STONES

I have to tell ya, I’m so proud of my baby girl. She's working on a project for the school’s science-fair by growing citrine crystals in the basement. What normally takes thousands of years to do in nature; chemists have somehow been able to reproduce in a matter of weeks. I think this is kinda of cool.

Everyday with anticipation, we dash downstairs and observe the quartz growing before our eyes. It’s amazing to see the crystals getting larger and more defined with every passing day. It’s kind of like the citrine is alive and growing. The crystals are rising into something beautiful that speaks of God’s majesty. It’s as though they’re material expressions of living stones created by God so that his splendor can shine through for all to see.
