20230224- Infinity & Pool @ IR - Eternity?

24 Feb 2023 - Staring into Eternity from an Infinity pool at IR?

Wonder what is an Infinity Pool?
Well, simply the water a;ppears to be vanishing or extending to Infinity!
It is also known as a Zero-edge pool or a vanishing edge pool or a negative edge pool

How do Infinity Pools Work?
The edge over which the water continuously flow is terminated at a lower level then the required level in the pool , usually 2-6mm.  Then there is the collection trough beside and below the infinity pool!

So here I was at this Iskandar Residences on this friday. 
IR - yah , kind of integrated resort!

Wanted so much to swim in this spectacular infinity pool that looked over our Tuas-JB causeway and the Sunway Iskandar region.  

The setting of the sun view. Into the twinkling of the lights around.

Perched up on the 4oth floor, I had a glimpse of Eternity in the pool of Infinity! What a privilege and joy to behold!


Reflections
  • Space has no beginning or ending.
  • The wedding ring has no beginning or ending. But it is finite.
  • God has no beginning or ending. (Ps 90:2 _eternal God Gen 1 : In the beginning, John 8:58, Before Abraham was born , I AM.)

So what is one word to describe something that has no beginning or end?

Hmm....

The swim at this Infinity Pool gave me this perspective indeed.
Limitless. Boundless. Eternal.

The set of all positive for for non-negative numbers is INFINITE, but it has a beginning.  Conversely, a circle has no beginning or ending but it is FINITE.

This week, we can see not just the moon , but Jupiter and Venus with our naked eye as they come close to a conjunction.  Pretty sight to behold. We can sight planets from Earth with our naked eyes sometimes.

Such is the wonderful awesome power of our Eternal God
Rom 1:20 " For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made. even his eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse"

Yes, God is Infinite. He is omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, transcendent and immanent

Here on Earth, no matter how beautiful the view is from such and Infinity pool , they are just temporal.  We are pilgrims merely passing through this left earthly journey.  However , may we seek God and fix our eyes on things that are of eternal value. 

Love God. Hate Sin. Win Multitudes
Reach Up. Reach In. Reach Out
Amen.
