Schrödinger's Plates

 

Schrödinger's Plates is used to explain and unexplainable quantum physics principle: how two opposites can be true at the same time.  If you look at the picture, you will see that the plates are at once not broken but broken.  Just open the door to see the obviously desperate position that the plates are in.  Can you think of a solution to save the plates from destruction?  Seems like the plight of sinners …alive and well, but lost and bound for hell with no hope in sight.  Their destruction hasn’t happened, but it is as good as done because they are on the broad road that leads to destruction spoken of in Matthew chapter 5.  But it doesn’t have to end that way, because Jesus can solve any problem, even Schrödinger's Plates.  Don’t ask me how, but He can.  Jesus said in Matthew 5:13&14, “Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.”  Have you found the solution to life’s seemingly impossible problems?  Jesus is the only way.  Yes, He is!

The Love of God

 

I felt rather snooty on Saturday.  Let me explain: Saturday was my sweet granddaughter’s birthday, and I wanted to send her a gift.  I didn’t trust myself to pick out clothes or jewelry, but money is always appropriate.  So, I decided to use Venmo.  Yikes!  I was reluctant to link my checking account to an online app, and my Visa card charged a 3% fee.  I had to install American Express, Venmo, and Google Pay on my phone, which I did.  Each had usernames, passwords, robot verification, and agreements, which were verified with texted codes to my phone.  I felt like I was walking through a minefield.  After an hour and all of the installations and verifications I finally hit “send” and anxiously waited.  Within 30 seconds, she sent me a text thanking me for the birthday money!  She had no idea how much this 75-year-old grandpa had worked for that money!  Hey, I go about my life every day without seeing the invisible protection of the Holy Spirit and God’s ministering angels.  They guard, protect, and defend me against Satan and his evil hoards while I am clueless.  God may get a weak, “Thank you, Lord, for watching over me today,” but nothing more.  But the dear Lord loves me so much!  He doesn’t love me because I am thankful; He doesn’t love me because I am worthy.  He loves me because of who He is!  The Lord God Almighty is the very essence of love!  Paul said it best in Romans 8:38&39, “For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Pill Reminder

 

Once a week, I open my pill bottles and refill my pill container.  I use a pill container because if I don’t, I’ll forget if I have taken my meds or not.  And taking a second dose is just as bad as forgetting to take them.  I can look at the pill container and at a glance, I can see if I have taken my medications.  Same with my Bible.  I should read a portion of the Bible each morning to get my day started off right.  But most mornings, I hit the floor running.  I need a pill reminder for my Bible.  Hey, if you haven’t read a few verses in your Bible yet, close your computer and get out the Good Book.  And if you’re reading this post on your phone, open your Bible app and read a few verses.  If you don’t have a Bible app, download e-sword LT.  It’s free!  My posts are good, but God’s Words are great!  David said in Psalm 119:105, “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.”  Read your Bible often … it’s good for you.
