If He can do anything, then He should be able to eat any burrito, but if that's true, He can't make a burrito that is too hot!"<br /><br />I have to admit, that question stumped me for a loooong time, and as a result, my friend thought he found a "loop hole" or something, which made his atheist beliefs some how correct. Well God eventually gifted me with the answer (cuz i certainly didn't come up with it!):<br />"It's a trick question! The question assumes that God is limited to the rules of this world; rules such as 'hot' and 'cold.' God is not limited by things we are limited by (or anything for that matter), so the question is irrelevant, and doesn't apply to Him."<br /><br />It's hard, sometimes, to remember that God really IS all powerful. He's working beyond anything we could comprehend, so when we see His power at full capacity, we just can't understand it, nor do we really have any hope to try! Kinda makes you feel a little insignificant, huh? Good thing He's on our side. :)Miss Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11181418898450855207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8419267995961299321.post-70696457838590468552009-08-07T19:43:04.483-07:002009-08-07T19:43:04.483-07:00If God made sense, then WE could have everything f...If God made sense, then WE could have everything figured out-- because all would be logical. I once tried to learn the game of chess.. The person teaching me was making moves that did not make sense to me.. In fact I mocked him... "that was a REALLY DUMB move" I would say... Then 4 moves later I was in check... now I am a little less pompous-- well when it comes to chess anyway.. I am playing the game of life in God's world, against the rule maker, the ultimate player, the piece mover... I wonder what moves he has in play for me? Giving over to the master that knows more then I, does not feel right... it causes stress, worry, anxiety... If God was a little more predictable, I could control the outcome of the game... or at least win a match.. or chart my own path... Yet everytime I think I have made a brilliant move--- I get checked.. Just another reminder it's not my world...People and Performance Leaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01121939590667384318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8419267995961299321.post-11655729386065608412009-08-07T19:37:02.739-07:002009-08-07T19:37:02.739-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.People and Performance Leaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01121939590667384318noreply@blogger.com
