Did You Know...
...that Francis Collins, Director of NIH, stated the following?
"If God is real, and I believe he is, then he is outside of nature. He is, therefore, not limited by the laws of nature in the way that we are."

Thought of the Week
A statement from a family-owned business advertisement:
"Every year is a good year; some years are just better than others."
We have experienced a troubling year related to COVID-19, but one can look at it from the aspect that the arrival of the COVID-19 VACCINE here at Christmas time is indeed a "Christmas Miracle." It is truly a miracle that the vaccine was developed not in years, but in months, and is now being administered to the population.
Despite the problems, difficulties, and about 1.6 million deaths worldwide to date, it is interesting to compare it with the following table and be thankful for the efforts of all those that helped provide us the Vaccine Miracle gift this year! Merry Christmas!

Looking Back
The whale put Jonah
Down the hatch,
But coughed him up,
Because he scratched!
