"I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty." - Revelation 1:8
Just to backtrack a day, yesterday's Jesus Calling was about time. It was appropriate for the summer solstice, the longest day of the year.
Today's project related to the science of time. We will look at the amount of daylight and remember that all time is God's time. From today, the longest day of the year, to the shortest day of the year for all eternity.
1) Cut a construction paper circle out of black paper and one identical circle out of yellow.
2) Find the center of the circles. There are many ways to do this. You could make an additional circle out of scratch paper, fold it in quarters, then cut one fold to the center of all three circles.
3) Fit the yellow and black circles together. Lookin up sunrise time and sunset time. Calculate the percentage of the day the was light and show it on your pie chart.
4) Look up winter solstace and show the day length on your pie chart. Thank God for watching over your days and nights and inviting you to spend eternity with Him and His son in heaven.
