12/12/12

Today is the last triple digit date of the century.

I just can't let it get by without pondering and commenting on it,

because that may be the only significant thing

I do today!

 

The first thing I got when I googled (love that word) 12/12/12

was the mathematical answer of (12/12)/12
(12 divided by 12 divided by 12)

which is 0.08333333333

 

 

Then I typed in 12-12-12

and my answer was -12
(12 minus 12 minus 12)

 



That's about as nerdy as I get - googling math equations!

 

I think of things like:

 

12 year old grandson

Size 12 shoe

12 inches of snow

12 foot ceiling

Dining table that seats 12

12 inches in a foot

12 months in a year

12 step program

Loop 12 in Dallas

12 noon

12 midnight

12 working hours in my man's day

12 days of Christmas

12 drummers drumming
 

 

Then there's 12 in the Bible:

 

12 pillars erected at Mt Sinai
12 patriarchs

12 sons of Jacob

12 tribes of Israel

12 stones on the priests' breastplate
12 spies sent to Canaan
12 pillars erected in the Promised Land
12 year old Jesus questioned religious scholars

12 apostles
12 legions of angels could have been called by Jesus

12 gates of pearl in New Jerusalem

12 angels guarding the gates
12 foundations of precious stones
12 kinds of fruit on the Tree of Life

 

  According to some biblical scholars,
 the number 12 signifies governmental perfection.

So on this 12th day of December 2012
I pray perfect order and perfection in your life!

(and 12 drummers drumming!)
