Every now and then, the game seems completely, utterly, suffocatingly stupid, to the point where a fast finish would seem welcome, but that's just the nihil talking. <br /><br />It is indeed a good word to remember for those times it's needed most, when the Word seems farthest away.juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15975754287030568726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-13774556498360589682015-04-27T14:53:02.189-07:002015-04-27T14:53:02.189-07:00If you should "win," then it just means ...<i>If you should "win," then it just means the game is over and then so too is the fun.</i><br /><br />Even a lot of Christians seem to be tired of the game and want it to be over. I know I have lost sight of the enjoyment that comes from playing at times. <br /><br />Another good word I needed.mushroomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07651027035577798096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-26548574359052938152015-04-27T09:53:50.004-07:002015-04-27T09:53:50.004-07:00...not in such a way that theology is dragged down...<i>...not in such a way that theology is dragged down to the level of profane philosophy, but rather, that theology goes positively nuts:</i><br /><br />Much like how both quantum and Newtonian physics describe properties of the world, but the farther down the quantinuum you go, the nuttier it gets.juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15975754287030568726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-66914320882976109822015-04-27T09:48:44.146-07:002015-04-27T09:48:44.146-07:00"The more the persons differentiate themselve...<i>"The more the persons differentiate themselves in God, the greater is their unity"</i><br /><br />Reminds again of how "to be long multiple is to be deeply one."<br /><br />And now to continue reading...juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15975754287030568726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-78062475019267093772015-04-27T09:35:33.794-07:002015-04-27T09:35:33.794-07:00The hymn that sat as an earworm on reading today&#...The hymn that sat as an earworm on reading today's post: (skip to the end if you don't care to hum along.)<br />Immortal, invisible, God only wise,<br />In light inaccessible hid from our eyes,<br />Most blessèd, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,<br />Almighty, victorious, Thy great Name we praise.<br /><br />Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light,<br />Nor wanting, nor wasting, Thou rulest in might;<br />Thy justice, like mountains, high soaring above<br />Thy clouds, which are fountains of goodness and love.<br /><br />To all, life Thou givest, to both great and small;<br />In all life Thou livest, the true life of all;<br />We blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree,<br /><br />And wither and perish—but naught changeth Thee.<br />_____<br />So what was Moses doing, arguing? Abraham bargained. Why pray to a immutable rock of a God? Been bothering, ahha! Knew something didn't sound right there.
