A Divine Bernoulli Effect

Divine Tapestry
When weaving, many threads interlace to make the tapestry. If we want to change the color or pattern, we drop a thread, pick up another, and change the pattern. In life, it’s just as easy to drop a thread. When … Continue reading
Lock Steps
The Christ is kind of like the locks of a canal. It meets us where we are and adjusts our level before we go forward. If we need humility or confidence, compassion or strength, the Christ communicates our true nature … Continue reading

Ashtray Analogy
I’ve never been a smoker. So, whenever I ate out (when they used to allow smoking in restaurants), there would be an unused ashtray on the table. And when the conversation turned toward God, which it invariably would, it was … Continue reading

Air is all around us. Move your arm through the air. See? You can’t take your arm out of the air. (For the purpose of this, we’re not talking about a vacuum.) Think of it this way, metaphorically speaking, God … Continue reading
