Just me trying to be honest with God.

“We have grasped the mystery of the atom and rejected the Sermon on the Mount” Omar Bradley

One gives freely, yet grows all the richer; another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want.Prov11.24 ESV

Here is one incantation, which will render our invisible God visible. Give and you will receive. Keep and you will suffer loss. It makes no sense to the eye or understanding that taking money out of your purse and giving it away will actually add money to your purse. But here is one place where we may catch a glimpse of the otherwise invisible hand of God. As our hand takes out to give, His hand puts in and we receive. But He does things like this all the time, showing up where He is least expected. He evidently loves to be found in this magical game of hide and seek. And who would have thought that Christ would make death the door to life? 8/11/2008 ts
