The One and only God

I am reading a book on Zen and am fascinated that principles of Zen are reflective of Christianity up to a point. Where it misses the mark is that there is nothing above the philosophizing although it would not deny that there is no "is" nor is there an "is not". This indicates, at least to me, that there is a truth beyond what we see and that our judgment is not always the best thing to go by. So whose judgment do we go by except God? And why are we afraid to acknowledge that we were created by Him. Yes I understand that evolution exists, but it is a tool. God definitely created all things, knows all things and has control over all things. He is a mighty and a wonderful God!!!

Satori

Satori in Japanese can be translated to newness. It's something that Jesus says when you are reborn then there is a new way of looking at something...much as Jesus says that He did not come to destroy the law but fulfill it. May we see our lives in Christ in the newness it was intended.

Don't be so sure

There is supposed to be a huge winter storm coming down. As good as our forecasters are, God is still greater and indeed knows what goes on. My prayer is that He keeps us all safe and warm and loving one another as He is love.

Valentines Day

Valentine's Day has always fascinated me. Originally for married couples it's actually for spreading love, tolerance, peace. May God put that on all our hearts. May we truly "Let our love show, like a bird on a wing, let our love grow to all living things".
