Celebrate

I sit here staring at the floor and the TV stand and wonder what the purpose of each is in this day that I am experiencing. Both depend on each other, and the one can’t have purpose without the other. The stand is so functional in its purpose to hold up the television, but doesn’t the floor have the same purpose?


The floor is the beginning of the house. It defines the shape, or the form, of the house. The house can’t be what it is without the foundation. However, the foundation has no purpose unless the floor, the walls, and the TV stand, for that matter, don’t exist.

Isn’t that true of everything? Nothing exists without the other that exists because or around the other items that support it or enhance it. That is so true of our lives. We can’t believe in or know the truth of anything unless we explore and at least begin to look to the form of something.

A triangle that we know on a piece of paper is but the form of some perfect triangle created by God, or more clearly the foundation of some triangle that exists to support all triangles to follow. For that matter, the triangle can’t exist unless the line exists that supports each side of the triangle. Each side without the other is only a portion of the potential or the form of what it can be when combined with the other portions or potentials of the other lines.

In our world we take the forms that support the reality of our material representation of our world of existence and use them as a mirror to the perfect form presented to us by our loving God. We do that with the love that we experience in our families. Our love is but the material reality of the true form of love presented to each one of us by God.

Our family love is intense, special and deep, but it is only an experience of the love that we can know through the love of God. This love is only the foundation that we can build upon to understand the love that God has for each and every one of us as individuals and in community. It is but a foreshadowing of the love that God has for us, and is most humanly perfected in the marital love of a man and woman that results in creation.

God must love us so much by trusting us to create life with an eternal soul. That is something to celebrate.

Talk to you again soon,
