(He is permitting His gravity to appear haywire) Part 2
In a previous message, this writer shared the definition of gravity I was taught during my earlier days at school. One of the definitions given by Webster was listed also. However, I admitted that my school days’ definition was easier to understand by me. It is a God-given force, which keeps people in a downward position and from floating above the air. For example: Everything which goes up will fall down except objects which man-made forces have been applied which will keep them suspended above the ground until that force is removed.
One day, during my years as a social studies teacher, an occasion arose during which I chose to demonstrate to some of my students God’s gravity works. Since it was quite a daring attempt and not having much scientific training, I rehearsed it many times before my students entered the classroom. I realized that if it failed…
I prayerfully took a heavy book, probably a dictionary and a sheet of paper and held one in each hand side by side and dropped them both approximately at the same time, and to my students’ amazement (mine also while silently praying) they appeared to land on the floor simultaneously. I silently thanked God over and over for His victory and probably loudly, also (big grin).
Afterwards, with more confidence, I prayerfully performed the experiment a few more times and afterwards allowed some student volunteers to perform it also, and…It was an enjoyable “class change-up”.
Because God has obviously changed His gravitational pull (for lack of a better word), I am not sure that experiments will have the same results today. Some of you may try to perform it, also. Be sure to keep your feet out of the path of the heavy book (smile) in order to demonstrate God’s apparent change in gravity.
A few years ago, our family adopted family member, Willie Williams Reddix, asked me to turn from the position in which I was sitting while facing him and give him a bottle rubbing of alcohol positioned behind me on the dresser. I tried to do as requested, turned around, picked up the alcohol, but it slipped from my hand and returned to the dresser for a brief moment. From there it continued its journey; fell on the carpeted floor behind an open door located on my left, bounced approximately three feet across the floor and to our astonishment, landed at Will’s feet. My, my, what a long route it took to “get” to Will. But, by God’s grace and mercy, “it got there!”
We were both in awe at God’s display of His awesomeness before us. It aggravates me very much when people give credit to an imaginary character, mother nature and not to our Creator, GOD,
who created us and everything, also His gravity.
Puzzled: This writer does not understand why amendments during voting times are allowed to be written in terms that average voters do not understand. I did understand to vote NO to gambling (gaming). Also, I am against legalizing abortions.
