There is No Place Like Home

“The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people passing by
I see friends shaking hands
Singing, "How do you do?"
They're really singing, “I love you."
- Lyrics from Over the Rainbow


Yesterday I watched a Ted Talk on what wonders we will discover and see with clarity when a number of telescopes are built or launched into space during the next few years.  It is amazing what we can learn about ourselves as humans, our Earth home, and the Universe through scientific observation. These lessons are great creation gifts from God.  But at the same time, as we observe human behavior and discover physics we are looking outward as physical human beings, we are forgetting that as Jesus said, "all things are possible with God."    

One of my favorite movie scenes is when Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz, is told by Glinda the Good Witch that "she has always had the power within her to go home" symbolized in her ruby red slippers (love).  What are the possibilities if we are a human viewing the Universe, but also possessing an inner soul with the ability to transcend space and time?  What if the power to solve our problems has always resided within us if we only believe in love and the power of God?  What amazing things could we achieve on Earth as well as in the Universe through God?  What if Jesus is already here, we just don't know it?

There are no limits.  There is God.
