You’ve got to love a mystery!! I can almost see Fred, Daphne, Velma, Shaggy, and Scooby Doo pulling up in their green van right now … But this is not THAT kind of mystery. It is a good mystery, and one on which we can depend!!
There are mysteries in God’s word, in the history of His interaction with His people, and mysteries in His very nature. That we DO NOT understand. And that is OKAY!!!
Yesterday we brushed by one of them while in Genesis 6. Who were the Sons of God, the Daughters of Men, and the Nephilim? I am NOT blogging to answer and talk about the THREE prominent theories. Those kinds of things are fun to talk about and think about, but none of them change the result: The earth was in a state of growing sin, walking farther and farther away from God. That is why God chose to flood the earth!!
As much as I like to understand EVERYTHING, I’ve come to this conclusion that really helps me: There IS a God, and I am NOT Him!! And it is okay for me not to understand EVERYTHING about Him. After all, if I could define God and draw His specifications on a blue print, would He really be God?? The mysteries of God are absolutely real and it really is OKAY for us to have FAITH because if He really IS GOD, we WILL NOT understand everything about Him.
Perhaps the greatest mystery is WHY DID HE LOVE US SO MUCH THAT HE SENT HIS SON?? I really don’t know the answer, but I am so glad He did!!
He is real, He is alive, and I am forgiven by His grace. Thank God for His mysteries!!
