Choose Contentment in the Midst of Tension

As we begin to realise the reality of the NOW kingdom, we are left with seeming paradox's in our faith. Impossibilities that we simply cannot reconcile with our finite minds. God is fully man and yet fully God. One of the important realities we need to accept is that it is ok to not understand the mind of God. We need to move beyond trying to understand our infinite God by our finite minds and simply accept His Truth and Reality. His kingdom is Something we cannot build, and yet God chooses to build it through us. We strive and yet we rest in him. The Paradox is incredible, but both realities exist together. The choice we must make is even though we cannot always understand, we can choose to be content and simply respond as the Holy Spirit leads. Philippians 2:12 Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed-not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence-continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, 13 for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.
