GOD IS A MYSTERY=BE AT PEACE

GOD IS A MYSTERY=BE AT PEACE
God is a MYSTERY=he wants
To tell us
ALL about himself
But he HOLDS
A lot back=
Because he knows
That we
Are NOT READY
To understand it all
To bear it now
In our HUMAN EXISTENCE
But someday=when we
Are with him
For all ETERNITY
He will make SURE
WE KNOW all about him=
And the why's and wherefor's
Of our lives
"Jesus said to his disciples=
'I have much more
To tell you
But you cannot
Bear it now=
But when he comes
The SPIRIT of truth
He will guide you
To all truth'"                                                                                                                                          John 16:12-13
BE AT PEACE with God=
Knowing him is a
Lifelong learning experience
But we learn more
About him=EACH and every day
But he is and always will be
A MYSTERY to us
For example=God is three in ONE=
Being=existing from the beginning
UNTIL the end of time
The TRINITY of God
Saves=creates=dies=and RISES
Who can understand
These realities?
ALL we can do
Is ACCEPT these mysteries
Of GOD=
And know
That he loves us
And be at PEACE
With that
GOD IS A MYSTERY
"I do not
WANT you to be ignorant
Of this MYSTERY
Brothers and sisters
So that you
May not be conceited
Israel has experienced
A hardening in part
Until the full number
Of the Gentiles
Has come in"                                                                                                                                    Romans 11:25
"This MYSTERY
Is that through
The gospel=the Gentiles are heirs
Together with Israel
Members together of one body
And sharers together
In the PROMISE of Christ Jesus"                                                                                                 Ephesians 3:6
We will NEVER UNDERSTAND
All the mysteries of God=
All we can do
Is accept these MYSTERIES     
And LOVE God and
Each other
This way-we can
BE AT PEACE
With the mysteries of God
And love him with our WHOLE HEART-
Soul-mind-and STRENGTH
"The Lord
Gives strength
To his people
The Lord blesses his people
WITH PEACE"                                                                                                                            Psalm 29:11
Our God has been=IS=and
Will always be
A MYSTERY
BE AT PEACE with it=
Until you get the ANSWERS
In union and in ETERNITY with God
In Jesus' name=and in the name of God=OUR MYSTERIOUS FATHER
