Life is characterized by mystery. Though scientists feverishly conduct research to discover the secrets of the universe. Though philosophers and theologians and moralists debate the great questions of life. Yet there are certain aspects of life that remain beyond the grasp of people to adequately answer.
God’s ways are not our ways. He is spirit; we are flesh. He is eternal; we are temporal. We simply do not have the framework to understand much of what is happening in our world and life, today.
Some people hate mystery. They need to have an answer for everything, even if it is inadequate. Yet wise people are not necessarily those who know everything. Rather they are the ones who recognize the limit of what they can understand. They embrace mystery as an exciting dimension to walking with an infinite God. Some of God’s ways are far beyond our understanding. Aren’t you glad?
