Live the Mystery

from United Church Gatherings Hosted by Trevor Grindle

We are caught up in this great mystery, you and I. We are surrounded by this reality, this hope that we cannot quite grasp, that we cannot quite fully understand but we know in the depths of our being is true. The mystery of Christ permeates every pore of our existence and of this world, but often times we just miss it; we pass right by without any awareness of the Jesus who calls out to us in love, and grace, and peace. The Jesus who has chosen you as his beloved. So often we strive and struggle, we fight and claw to understand the mystery, to grasp this Jesus and hold him tightly in our clutches. But Jesus in his immeasurable grace and love simply says, ‘Come. Sit with me a while.’ He bids us to simply be present with him. The mystery of Christ runs counter to our culture, it’s not a mystery that requires efforts, but a mystery that requires us to sit and stay a while in his presence.
