Can you imagine thinking up your senses, seeing, hearing, tasting, touching (wow I love that one), and smelling? Imagine being in a vacuum of nothing except a senseless human and thinking, “how will I outfit this being?” Unfortunately, I doubt anything would come to mind, even if we had 4.5 billion years and we were all in the vacuum together. Our senses are such a kind concept and perfectly matched to where we find ourselves. One more thing, our senses are not automatically nuanced nor fine-tuned. An astonishing fact of my life; as my faith has grown and my walk with God longer, my senses, evening though dulling in their physical receptiveness, have astronomically heightened in their spiritual awareness. By this I mean my senses bring me much more exquisite data as if the data is colored by the Divine or being tuned to recognize more and more of the Divine, a living with an exquisite understanding of more and more of the things I see, hear, taste, touch, and smell.
