God is eternally radiating His life into the universe as the sun from
its glowing center rays forth heat:
The most recent estimates place the effective temperature of the
sun’s radiating surface at about 10,000 degrees Fahrenheit.
This vast globe of gases and vapors is radiating heat into
space, is cooling off. The intensely heated particles of the
interior rise to the surface, give off their heat, and sink back
again, just as do the bubbles of steam in a kettle of boiling
water. This circulation from within outward takes place over
the whole of the sun and, as a rule, it proceeds steadily and
quietly, without any marked disturbance.--CHARLES LANE
