I wonder if I'm repeating myself, or if so, do I need to see it again.

We live and move and have our being in God.  That's found in Luke I think.  I'm not a Bible sort like my Dad.

He is amazing with all that he knows (though he doesn't believe that he knows what he thinks he knows).

Anyway this is not about my Dad.  This is about my thoughts.

It seems to me that if We live and move and have our being in God, then God also lives and moves in us.  Not sure about his holding his "being".  But he's surely close. 

It would explain why he knows what we think and feel, what our intent in any situation might be. Before we do or do not do whatever it is we intend. 

Yet good or bad he forgives us.  For let's face it, mostly we think bad things in and of ourselves. 

We judge and manipulate and use and dishonor one another on a regular basis.  God forgives.  So, part of us and yet above us.  We are not God, but we are a part of God as he is part of us. 

When we touch our thoughts to his...

This, I think we call Grace.

Time and life.

I've been reading a bit on the web this morning.  And find one thing in common.

Folks seem to think that God lives in time. 

He doesn't.  We live in time because we need it.  Not him.  We created time so We can have time to do this and that. 

What need does God have? 

Just my thoughts.

John.
