This last week in mathematics I was showing my class the “miracle” math of Isaac Newton, who made many contributions to Calculus and the development of things that we still use today.  In fact, what we now estimate on a computer, Newton calculated as EXACT SCIENCE over 300 years ago.

As we calculated a limit, one of my students made the comment:

“When x is infinite, that other number becomes insignificant.”

And what he said was right.  The absolute truth is this:

Infinite Things Make Finite Things Insignificant

And yet—God broke that rule twice.  He made Himself finite and insignificant so that He could make us infinite and significant.  

In a move that is beyond comprehension, He became Emmanuel:

Matthew 1 23 … and they will call him Immanuel”–which means, “God with us.”

Nothing is more effective than joining someone in their state.  And God chose to do just that.  He came and joined us in our world so that He could invite us to His.  It is the very reason that we say:  “Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.”

If you have trouble contemplating the idea of God.  I want you to give Him a chance.

  • Ask Him to come into your heart and your mind.
  • Ask Him to speak to you and to do a new thing in you.
  • Ask Him to show you love to the core of your being.

If you do I can assure you—He will show up.  And the reality is that you will never understand something infinite until you walk into “infinity”—and actually connect with God.  After all, how could you?  The point on the line can not possibly comprehend that the line goes to an unstopping value on each side of it.

The Father did something 2000 years ago that we can not fathom.  He left infinite and became finite.

So give Him a chance to change your eternity.

In The Name of the Father and the 

Son and the Holy Spirit.  Amen.
