GOD IS UNSEEN-GOD IS UNHEARD-OUR GOD IS A MYSTERY

GOD IS UNSEEN- GOD IS UNHEARD- OUR GOD IS A MYSTERY I have never seen God I have never even heard God And I am SURE- Neither have you For our God is a MYSTERY “Jesus said:........'The Father Who sent me Has TESTIFIED on my behalf But you have Never heard his voice Nor seen his form........” John 5:37 The Gospel of John Is so different Than the other 3 gospels It has Its own UNIQUE perspective Today-it tells us That Jesus was sent By his Father And that the “you” REFERS to us His 21st century apostles As well as the people Of his time We don't have Jesus Any more figured out Than the people of his day did He is still A MYSTERY TO US “No-we declare GOD'S WISDOM A MYSTERY that has been hidden And that God destined For our glory- Before time began” 1 Corinthians 2:7 “But in the days WHEN the 7th angel Is about to sound His trumpet- The MYSTERY OF GOD Will be accomplished Just as he announced To his servants the prophets” Revelations 10:7 Our God is unseen Our God is unheard Except for his TEACHINGS His teachings on LOVE His teachings on forgiveness- And his teachings on kindness As well as the healings and miracles He performed Our God Is a good God A God of PERFECT LOVE As manifested in the life-death- And RESURRECTION of Jesus Christ He is a humble God A God of perfect humility MAYBE we should try To CULTIVATE his humility Into our own lives “When pride comes- Then comes disgrace But with humility Comes wisdom” Proverbs 11:2 “Wisdom's instruction- Is to fear the Lord And HUMILITY Comes before honor” Proverbs 15:33 “I served the Lord With great humility and tears ….....” (Saint Paul) Acts 20:19 Isn't that something We should ALL ASPIRE to do? So Our God is unseen- Our God is unheard- And our God is a mystery Dear Lord-PLEASE HELP US To ALWAYS KNOW That we haven't got it All figured out And to live our lives In LOVE-FORGIVENESS-and KINDNESS Without always Needing to understand For you dear Lord Are a perfect mystery- AND PERFECT LOVE Robert P.
