| Are we truly seeking truth? Are we reaching for the stars? In general, the modern church has been raising generations of believers who have it all down. The modern-age filled our world with answers. We categorize everything and we know how things should work. There is an answer to every question and a solution to every problem. However, is this how our hearts work? Does the heart interact with world in such a cold and analytical way? The complete person should rather interact with the world in a holistic blended working of logic, reason, intuition and emotion. What is reason without conscious? What good is it to have the answers if we are not open to learn more? Where is the motivation to truly live, if we have determined to know exactly where we are now, yet we do not allow ourselves to dream into the mysteries of what could be? Do we allow ourselves the privilege of dreaming about life? Would we go so far as to dream about the mystery of God? Are we reaching for the stars when we seek to experience God, or do we constrain our experiences to the grounded formalization of tradition and legalism? God is a God of mystery and wonder who is not defined merely by our traditions and doctrines. Scripture is the pad from which your heart will launch, setting your trajectory skywards, but if you truly want to experience God and seek His truth, your soul must be willing to be set free to reach for the stars.
Yet when I am among mature believers, I do speak with words of wisdom, but not the kind of wisdom that belongs to this world or to the rulers of this world, who are soon forgotten. No, the wisdom we speak of is the mystery of God — his plan that was previously hidden, even though he made it for our ultimate glory before the world began. 1 Corinthians 2:6-7 |
