You Are the Red Bird
You are self-effacing and unassuming. You are free of swagger and bravado.
You are good natured and purposely try to keep things simple. You don't like too many details.

You are a study in contradictions. There is no one word to completely sum you up.
You deflect drama. You can get everyone laughing and smiling again.

Theory Of Everything

August 22, 2012

Scientists have been looking for the “Theory of Everything.” One person who thinks he found it is physicist Brian Greene, who wrote The Elegant Universe: Superstrings, Hidden Dimensions, and the Quest for the Ultimate Theory. Greene’s “string theory” is a complicated concept suggesting that at its tiniest level everything consists of combinations of vibrating strands, or strings. He has described his theory as “a framework with the capacity to explain every fundamental feature upon which the world is constructed.”

Over the years, thinkers from Newton to Einstein to Hawking to Greene have spent the greater portion of their lives trying to figure out how the universe works—and they have proposed fascinating theories.

In reality, for any theory to explain everything in the universe adequately it must begin and end with God. “All things . . . visible and invisible” (Col. 1:16) have their origin in Him and exist for His glory (Ps. 72:19). The first few verses of John’s gospel tell us that our Lord created the universe—and that without His hand of creation nothing would exist.

That’s why when we consider the world and everything in it, we can exclaim with Isaiah: “The whole earth is full of His glory!” (6:3). Praise His holy name!

Our God has fashioned earth and sky,
Sun, moon, and stars beyond compare;
His workmanship we can’t deny—
His fingerprints are everywhere. —Seals
All creation is an outstretched finger pointing toward God.

Read: John 1:1-13

For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible. —Colossians 1:16
Bible in a Year:
Jeremiah 13-16

One would think I was a Gemini instead of an Aries. LOL

Gotta run. Going for a walk before the crowd arrives.
Walk buddy is on her way.

But, please stay right where you are.
Keep the troops and their families entertained.

There's always plenty of coffee, tea,
