…The finite is annihilated in the presence of the infinite, and becomes a pure nothing. So our spirit before God, so our justice before divine justice….
Blaise Pascal, Pensées
When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written:
“Death is swallowed up in victory.”1 Corinthians 15:54 (ESV)
When I read the Daily Prompt: Immerse, Pascal’s words and the scripture from She Reads Truth’s Lenten devotional were fresh in my mind.
I could picture my tiny finite being totally lost in the Infinite God.
Swallowed up.
Immersed like my swimmer in a great ocean of Love.
Great descriptions!
Good analogy!
