SOLUTION WITH DAILY INSPIRATION |
This Christian
life is a great mystery, far exceeding our understanding,
but some things are clear enough. (1 Timothy 3:15 — The Message)
There are many people who want all
of their questions answered in ways that they can understand,
with their finite minds, before they will believe and
accept Jesus. However, the truth is just as Paul has
put it — this Christian life is a great mystery. There
are and always will be many things that we do not understand,
things we must accept by faith and trust. But there are
many things that are clear, such as God’s love
for us. He loves us so much that He sent Jesus to show
us how to live and love. Jesus died to cover our sins
forever, rose again from the dead to give us everlasting
life, and ascended to the right hand of the Farther to
give us His power here on earth to continue to do the
work He started. We can be part of rescuing the hearts
and lives of those He loves, His creation. We have been
made sons and daughters of the Most High God, the Commander
of the Army of Angels, and we have been given His authority,
by His own words. What we command in His name according
to His will, will happen. These things are exceedingly
clear in the Bible, right there for all to who have eyes
to see. It is just a matter of our embracing it and moving
in it.
So should we not spend our time acting on what we do
know rather than sitting around, wasting valuable time,
trying to gain understanding to what is beyond our comprehension?
Yes, this life is a great mystery, but we have more than
enough information to keep us busy and to give us a full
and meaningful life. Let’s not waste it!
Live intentionally, purposely, free and with passion,
