Jun. 19, 2007 - Analogies and the Great Critical Thinker
The other day I was sewing away on my ball dress, when I had a thought. It was an analogy of our walk with God and sewing, but I can't remember it. However, I realized that lately, I have been seeing parallels in very simple things, and likening it to our relationship with God.
As I was thinking of my sewing analogy, I had another thought. This is actually really obvious, but it made me think. Everything in this world, from us flying to the moon, to spiders crawling around in the dark corners of our house, that is an analogy of our relationship with Christ, and our association with Satan.
Then that thougth led me to another. What if God put all of these analogies here on purpose, for us, the poor, small-brained humans that we are, to understand, at least a little bit of what he is trying to teach us.
My next thought was, "Of course God put those parallels here on purpose, of course he knows that they are there." Me, with my limited knowledge couldn't imaging someone purposely creating analogies in everything!
It is truly awe inspiring when you think of a God who would do that for us, in yet another effort to bring us light, and come closer to him.
(Just a short note, I am not finished with my ball dress yet, we were having major problems with putting the zipper in.)

That IS a neat thought--that God has designed so many things from creation to our relationships with others to point us back to Him. Awesome!

You and your sister blog the same way. lol. could be because you're sisters! lol
Great post. I think you are right. It's funny how simple things like sewing can make us think. Just goes to show that everything comes from God. He created our minds to led everything Him.
Love,
Jocelyn
