About Me

My photo
I share my thoughts and experiences for many reasons. Maybe it will stir something in a reader, maybe inspire, maybe produce laughter or even a smile, maybe to share a different point of view. Sometimes just for the sheer joy of writing. But my ultimate desire is to share the stories of the life that I live, unto the God that I love, Jesus, my Lord. To know Him and make Him Known

FULLY SATISFIED

In my lifetime, I worked hard, played hard, loved much, enjoyed abundance, and experienced many highs and lows.  Yet even in my best moments, something was profoundly missing.
For decades I sought high and low.
One day I accepted an invitation and found that which was missing.   It was not religion.  It was and is a relationship with Jesus Christ.
It is because of Him that I am thankful.  He is the giver of every good and perfect gift.  I dine on the richest fare and finally, I am fully satisfied.

Come, all who are thirsty, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come, buy and eat!
Come, buy wine and milk without money and without cost.
Why spend money in what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy? Listen to me and eat what is good, and you will delight in the richest of fare.
Isaiah 55:1,2

Way Over My Head

Annette Marie Carr
While waiting to pay for my groceries yesterday I listened to a conversation that  I did not understand at all.  Advanced Mathematics.   It sounded like a foreign language.  I major in words but find numbers puzzling.  So I came home and looked up some of the words.  But the definitions were so over my head they just led to more words I needed to look up: Bionomial coefficients, Polynomial expansion, Pythagorean theorem.
After about an hour, I realized I would have to spend a vast amount of time and energy to actually begin to understand more than a basic concept of such a topic.
I believe that higher math is a reality, even though I cannot comprehend it or begin to explain it.  Math can be infinite if you keep adding to the equation.
So it is with my faith in Jesus, the validity of the Holy Scriptures, and Heaven. I have spent almost 30 years studying these subjects.  And I still have so much to learn.  I know there is much scientific evidence to prove the validity of my faith.  But even the top scientists have finite minds.
How can a finite mind fully grasp the infinite?
Faith is being sure of what you hope for and certain of what you cannot see.
I am certain that in time, science will not disprove Jesus is God.  It is simply a matter of humanity's finite minds growing enough to comprehend the science of this truth. Meanwhile, the truth remains over our head. What we do with it is our choice.
I choose to believe in Bionomial coefficients, Polynomial expansion, Pythagorean theorems, and Jesus.
