Glimpses of Wonder: Reflections on Jehovah’s Remarkable Design

 

Everywhere we look, traces of wisdom, beauty, and purpose surround us. Glimpses of Wonder invites readers on a journey through the marvels of Jehovah’s creation—from the tiniest creatures to the grandest cosmic patterns.

 

Through vivid storytelling and thoughtful reflection, each entry uncovers something extraordinary: the engineering behind a bird’s wing, the secrets of glowing sea life, the chemistry of smell, or even the silent language of trees. Some entries make us laugh. Others make us think. But all are rooted in the awe that Jehovah’s handiwork inspires.

 

Blending science, history, and heartfelt curiosity, Glimpses of Wonder is more than a celebration of creation—it’s a call to pause, notice, and give credit where it’s due.

Richter Scale Explained - now I understand

Let’s just get this out of the way—I hate math. I really do. But sometimes, understanding something requires a little bit of it, so I’m willing to push through. That being said, let’s explore the Richter scale and what those numbers actually mean.   I used to think that when an earthquake went from a 3.0 to a 4.0, it was just a small step up, maybe twice as strong at most. I mean, how bad could one little number be? But when I actually dug into it, my brain did that thing where it sudd

PFAS in Our Food and Everyday Life: The ‘Forever Chemicals’ We Can’t Ignore

I am not an expert on PFAS, but after days of research and comparison, I wanted to share my findings on this serious issue. Unlike my previous blogs, the depth and complexity of PFAS required a more detailed approach. Understanding PFAS: What You Need to Know PFAS—per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (pronounced poly-floor-oh-alkyl)—are everywhere. These man-made chemicals have been around for decades, used in nonstick cookware, waterproof fabrics, food packaging, firefighting foam,

Essential Oils: Nature's Defense Mechanism and Their Safe Use

Essential oils are concentrated plant extracts that capture the natural compounds responsible for a plant's fragrance and flavor. In their natural environment, these oils serve as the plant's defense mechanisms, deterring herbivores, inhibiting microbial growth, and protecting against pathogens. They function as chemical weapons, repelling threats or even harming invaders. Yet, much like the scriptural concept of turning weapons into tools, humans have repurposed these compounds for therapeutic

Solar Panels in Alaska: Defying the Darkness

Alaska’s vast wilderness and breathtaking beauty come with unique environmental challenges, especially when it comes to harnessing solar power. With long, dark winters and snowy conditions, many wonder if solar panels are a worthwhile investment in the northernmost state. Surprisingly, with innovative solutions and Alaska’s unique summer advantages, solar energy can be both viable and beneficial.   The Challenges of Solar Energy in Alaska 1.

Exploring Extremes: The Deep Ocean vs. The Moon

The deep ocean and the Moon represent two of humanity’s most challenging frontiers. Both push the limits of exploration, yet they differ greatly in accessibility and the obstacles they present. It’s striking to consider that more than 20 people have reached the deepest part of the ocean, the Challenger Deep, while 12 astronauts have walked on the Moon. What makes these environments so extreme, and what can they teach us about Jehovah’s creation?   The Deep Ocean: Crushing Pressure
