Take light from the Sun.  Make concrete glow!

Four students made the concrete.  People can build roads and paths that glow.  No other lights would be needed to light the way at night.

Pray people will think of more ways to use the Sun’s light. Concrete that glows is a great idea.

Read More: Smart students in Cairo, Egypt, want to save energy. Electric lights that tower above streets use a lot of energy. Energy costs money. Is there a way to have free light? God gave us the Sun! The students took plain concrete. They added to the sand and water mixture. Now the concrete can soak up sunlight all day. It glows at night. Thank God for His many free gifts! God made the Sun “to give light on the Earth.” (Genesis 1:17)
