Easter: Day Forty-Four, Monday May 17, 2010

Excerpts taken from "Theology and Sanity" by Frank Sheed:
"Of spirit we have already spoken as lacking the properties of matter... Spirit would still be something even if matter did not exist... material things have constituent parts, and spiritual things have not... a spirit has no parts: therefore it cannot be taken apart . It can exist only as a whole... What has parts can occupy space - space indeed may be thought of as the arrangement matter makes to spread its parts in... The air is beyond the reach of one particular sense, namely sight, because it lacks color. Spirit is beyond the reach of all the senses (and so of imagination) because it lacks all material qualities."

Some words to think about! Read the book! Wonder no more whether there is a God!! There is much more that we do not see nor do we understand just because we are material beings and the spirit is outside our realm of understanding. We can only imagine what our senses have experienced. What our senses have never experienced, we can never fully understand or begin to imagine.
God bless!!
