sum

1/11/12 My breath prayer for the day comes from Psalm 139:11, "How weighty to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them!" My undergraduate degree is in mathematics...a B.S. degree, not a B.A., in math from Texas A & M. I am quick to point out that it is pure math, not business math, or applied math, or computer math....simply pure math. I was drawn to the mathematical word in the text today....sum. To consider the sum of God's thoughts is overwhelming. Mathematicians have a symbol for infinity; it looks like the number 8 laid on its side. That's the sum of God's thoughts. I am humbled.

Love,
Lynn
