A Limerick A Day to Keep You On Your Way©

There once was created a perfect mystery.

Only the Divine could know its full history.

Beginning to end,

Life never does end.

The mystery of life is contradictory.

 A Perfect Mystery

The mystery of life.  Sooner or later we all ask the questions, “Why am I?, What is my purpose? Many people do not bother to search for the answer. They just let life happen to them instead of life happening for them. I have fallen into this trap on many occasions only to snap out of it at the realization God is not against me. He is for me.  He wants me to succeed more than I do. In 2023. I signed up for webinars, coaching, and challenges. I listened to YouTube books while I slept. I bought cd’s on self-help. AND surely I thought by the end of the year I would be done with my books, run a challenge, and have a podcast. What happened to the whole year!? 

It’s interesting how we measure time by a year, 12 months.  If we seem to fail at what we thought would happen it can easily cause us to want to give up.  I know, I have felt that way.  I look back at 2020 and see how passionate I was with my plan to write 12 journals that would become my retirement income.  You learn much about yourself while you write. You are your own mystery. Search out your heart. I learned I needed constant prodding to keep moving forward and not condemn myself for days of not writing. I realized my day job became busier than it had been in ten years. My energy levels were depleted by the end of the week. God revealed it was a blessing from heaven that only looked contradictory. My books appeared halted as He provided many more patients making provision for a better retirement check. I am trusting in the mystery of His timing as I rest in His peace believing my books will be right on time.

To say this is 2024 seems even more futuristic than the time we were waiting for 1984 to happen. Time can appear motionless. Then SUDDENLY, like a flash years have traveled by. Our finite minds can not fully understand a God who has no beginning and no end. We live by time, not eternity.  We are told to redeem the time, the days are short, and work while it is day because night is coming when no man can work. James 4:14(KJV) Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.

What happens to your life after it vanishes away? Do you just die and are no more? Does your life matter?  Does your death matter?

God is eternal.  So are we.  God is the creator of life. By His Spirit Breath, He makes us alive. God can not kill his Spirit.  Death as we know it only takes on a different form.  Your spirit will live forever once it leaves this earthbound body.  What you do now as you live out your time on earth is of great importance. The question will come, “Did I do what He asked me to do? 

These are mysteries of the Divine Word. How do we understand them? We must search the scriptures. God loves to reveal His mysteries.

The year 2024 is the prophetic sign of the open door. The new year begins in September for the Jewish calendar. It is the year with the number 4 for open doors. I wish the world had just one calendar.  Mysteries of time would not be so complicated. The debate about Jesus’ true birth circulates every year.  Why is that so important to us?  It does not change anything about His purpose.  He came to do what God asked of Him.  HIS DEATH RELEASED POWER TO UNDERSTAND MYSTERIES. His death tore the veil that kept us from entering the Holy of Holies. Heaven and Earth were united that day.  We were granted the revealing of the mysteries of heaven.

But hold up…..

It isn’t like all the mysteries of heaven suddenly come flowing into our life. We must still search them out. The bible’s definition of mystery can only be understood by divine revelation. The honor is in the discovery. Proverbs 25:2(KJV) It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.  To be a king is no light thing. It comes with trials, tests, and humility. You must honor and bow down to the King of Kings through it all.  Who is this King of Kings?

JESUS.

Is Jesus your King? If not make it so this day.  He is calling you to repent of your sins.  Do so quickly.  Ask His forgiveness. HE freely gives it.  Ask Him to come live in your heart and help you obey His Word all the rest of the days of your life.  Ask Him to fill you with the Holy Spirit.

Let’s begin 2024 by releasing all sin, pain, and disappointments of 2023.  Shut that door. The new door of 2024 is open.  We are walking through it into a new vision of more and more. Many things will seem contradictory in this new year. A mystery for sure. Search it out.  We will see mysteries unfold. It is the year of the open door and more.

Pray this prayer with me.

Dear Jesus,

You opened the door to heaven’s mysteries through Your sacrifice on the Cross.  We release the past of 2023.  A new door is open now. The door of more. (This is your time to be sure Jesus lives in your heart, you cannot enter without Him.) We freely walk through it, knowing You are with us as we search out greater mysteries that only You can reveal.  Ready our hearts so we may truly live in the more of 2024. Send us more of Holy Spirit for divine revelation and understanding.   In Jesus Name.  Amen.
