Full of mystery

We’ll never completely understand how God does his miracles. Nor will we really comprehend what he is up to with all of his uncountable surprises. ~ Job 9:10 (ABP)

Then Jesus said, "God’s kingdom is like seed thrown on a field by a man who then goes to bed and forgets about it. The seed sprouts and grows—he has no idea how it happens. The earth does it all without his help: first a green stem of grass, then a bud, then the ripened grain." ~ Mark 6:26-28 (MSG)

SUMMARY SENTENCE
Accept the fact that God and his ways are full of mystery.
PRAYER
Thank you, God, for all that you are doing around me. I confess that I'm so full of myself that I don't even see what you're doing -- let alone begin to understand why. Help me to accept the fact that you are full of unexplainable mystery. I'm going to throw myself into your kingdom, the agenda that Jesus taught, even though I realize that I can't explain it all. Amen.
