Why would it wear off? Jadedness?

Ask a frog in hot water. If it could speak, it would probably say it had no idea the presence of heat had so much to do with its condition. Heat being the natural state of things, cold being the "miracle" with no scientific basis in reality.

"Jadedness" brings moral baggage, IMO, but maybe that's the right word.

I dunno, Fester.

Daily I am reminded of my own frailty, the vastness of the universe and its ancientness.

I cannot stop thinking that God is truly beyond my mental grasp if He has created so much over so long a time all to be brought to fruition 2000 years ago.

I look forward to being in His Presence one day.

How can I lose sight of that?

How can I find that dull and boring?

I think that those who find faith dull and Gods creation lackluster need to get back out and engage life in all its beauty and dread.

It is the safety of modern life that dulls the mind so that we cannot sense anymore what surrounds us; God's Living Presence.

But still it is there.
