Many people of different eras and of widely different cultures claim to have had an experience with the 'divine'.
It is inconceivable that so many people could have been so utterly wrong about the nature and content of their own experience.
Therefore, there exists a 'divine' reality that many people of different eras and of widely different cultures have experienced (Handbook of Catholic Apologetics, pg. 88).
Does such experience prove that an intelligent Creator God exists? On the face of it, this seems unlikely. For such a God does not seem to be the object of all experiences called "religious". But still, he is the object of many. That is, many people understand their experience that way; they are "united with" or "taken up into" a bounless and overwhelming Knowledge and Love, a Love that fills them with itself but infinitely exceeds their capacity to receive. (Handbook of Catholic Apologetics, pg. 88)
So very true. Once you have experienced a glimpse of the infinite love and knowledge of God that is in store for us, none of the "counterfeits" that this world have to offer even come close.
“Magnify the Lord with me; let us exalt His name together.” summarizes the purpose and mission of our marriage and this blog. Through our marriage and family, we hope to magnify the Lord and bring glory to His name. We married in June of 2006 and thereafter began our journey of infertility and adoption. After three unsuccessful adoptions, we brought home our baby girl, Abigail Chiara, in September of 2010, followed by our precious girl, Gianna Luce, in November of 2011! This blog shares my heart, my life, and what I am learning.
