Infinity and Christ

(another post from 2015)

True religion is real living: living with one's soul, with all one's goodness and righteousness.

An Einstein Quote From www.simpletoremember.com

I love astronomy as many of you already know. The inconceivable vastness our environment is a sobering realization. There are things that will never be known to us. Science may try to unravel the mysteries of "why" and "how" but for every answer there are many more questions that come to the fore. The farthest regions of space can never be seen and every time the smallest of the small is realized something smaller is found. The complete answers will never be known. THAT is the beauty of our Lord. Religion is not something exclusive to any sect or teaching but life itself. The whole of the word of God is a teaching on how to live and the rewards of that journey when we acknowledge the truth found in them. It brings pure humility to know some one so great can create on scales we will never comprehend. The season coming up, Christmas, has many things that defy explanation. Angels, and the Holy Spirit are some things that vex science to this day. Immaculate conception? How is that possible? Hearing voices and no one physically there? Mary must have eaten something that did not agree with her or she was inebriated when those voices came to her to tell her of the Christ child to come! It must have been a coincidence when Joseph was told about Mary, right? Angels and the Holy spirit are VERY real for me and many like me. My doubts were wiped away many years ago. What about you? Do you celebrate Christmas as a holy time or is your Christmas just for the presents? If you are going to celebrate the season then celebrate the only gifts that matter, the birth of Christ and the gift of the Holy Spirit. They bring the gift of forgiveness for all who believe. With them come the healing of mind body and spirit. I assure you these gifts are real.

May the good Lord bless and keep you safe.

Spiritual Sight

 

There is power in this Brainy Quote. It is how I often approach the pain I see in this world and in my life. If we really want to we can focus on the pain in our lives and in the world around us as the press is want to do or we can look at all of the good and beauty that is left untouched and often unnoticed. I know all of us face unpleasant realities every day. At those times, how often do you stop to notice all of the beauty that is left behind? Do you ever acknowledge the the fragile beauty of God's creation or of the beautiful souls that are all around you? Do you ever stop your daily routine to breathe in the wonder of your surroundings? Anne Frank was in a position unimaginable for most of us and yet this is how she saw things. This is an example of what it means to be spiritual. This is what it means to be in touch with the Spirit of God. This is a place our Spirit meets Jesus and finds peace. It is a place that is just for you and Him. It is a place where the intimate touch of God has the power to lift, to inspire, to give peace and to talk to us of His love for us. It does not matter what our situation might be or the pain we are in at the time. It is hard to imagine the emotions she felt when these thoughts were penned. It was a desperate time of  trials and loss. It was a time when it felt hopeless. It is at these times that Jesus is there for us if we allow Him to enter in. In Him our hope is realized.
