What is a divine idea?

Donna Leigh Lundman

Have you ever thought of trying to hold a rainbow in your hand? Have you ever tried to hold an idea? Would you use your hands to hold a thought?

There are some things we can see that we don't see with our eyes. We see them with our understanding of God. When we understand something this way, we might say, "I see."

We don't see with our eyes the love we have for our friends, but we do feel love. We don't feel it with our fingers, we feel it in our thinking, because loving is an idea. We don't see truthfulness with our eyes, but we are truthful. We don't hold it in our hand, but we know when we are acting that way. So truthfulness is an idea, and when we love it, we live it.
