Rain, Rain Go Away

It has been raining, and raining, and raining in Chicago for days. I think most people don't realize that Earth contains all the water we are ever going to have or have ever had. No more, no less.
It's difficult to picture the fact that every single atom that is in a living organism today has been here--in existence--for billions of years. It's not only picturesque but true--we are made of stardust. Far from making us insignificant, it is the miracle of the first order.
When people ask me how I reconcile science with faith, I respond, "And God said, let there be light."
All the rest is detail.
