Standing in Mystery

Well schooled in a false sense of control, we usually cling to the illusion of power as we struggle with the paradoxes of life.
Each of us knows those times when we dig in our feet, stiffen our body, tighten our jaw and demand rational explanations for unexplainable events.
Granted, we must take an active, assertive stance in our journey of life, making conscious choices from a place of truth and insight.
Yet, as we encounter experiences for which there are no answers, no rational explanations or solutions, we arrive at a point where, in faith, we are asked to stand in a Mystery that far exceeds our human understanding.
