Almighty

Disclaimer: below is not fact-checked if in agreement with official teaching of the Church; rather, it’s a personal exploration/intuition at my current place on spiritual path. May have a subjective meaning to me that I could have failed to fully clearly express in writing.

For a long time, my notion of God’s almightiness was quite cloudy, subconsciously vaguely akin to a really powerful deity who can move planets when He strains with all His might and pushes really hard.

Recently, I arrived at a rather different picture, orders of magnitude more powerful. I now like to imagine, that between each quantum of time, God does, with tender loving care, with joy and passion of a fascinated hobbyist, move each and every single physical particle (each electron, each proton, each quantum of light, …) a tiny little bit, in such a way that all their movements collectively adhere to the “laws of Physics” that He himself invented when He invented the world. Then, he also “pushes” each and every kernel of consciousness a single quantum forward through time and the material world, carefully giving those kernels complete freedom to influence and interact with the particles and related kernels.

And all of this still using only a small, fully optional bit of His power. If the world is really a wave function, this also shows in my mind as Him playing the material world’s function as a violin.
