21天之第15天：擁抱神秘感！

在這個季節我們必須持定信心，期盼天使的支援。在這個季節我們也要省察到上帝在我們生命和社會中的位置。祂的同在對我們日常的所行所想應該有決定性的影響。我們要讓祂的真光越來越閃亮照耀，讓黑暗無所遁形。最後，我們必須要抵擋宗教的靈！宗教教條是關乎我們如何將生命獻給神的儀式和程序。

然而上帝渴望的是關係，而非教條。祂將祂的獨生愛子擺上作為犧牲，來開我們的眼，讓我們真知道祂是那位能恢復我們自由生命的神。祂最美好的應許和基業乃是，祂的孩子們可以憑著與造物主的關係來超越自己。神的獨生子耶穌從死裡復活，戰勝了一切死亡、地獄和墳墓，這是為眾人所見證的。跟從耶穌，讓祂的靈住在我們的靈裡頭，我們就可以進入天父阿爸的心裡，自在地愛與被愛。人類，不過是這世界的一部分，卻可以和那比世界更大的建立關係。

要瞭解上帝，我們必須保有一種神秘感。任何健康的關係都不能失去神秘感，當我們失去神秘感和新奇感時，平淡熟悉就來了。我喜歡給我的妻子和孩子們驚喜，他們是我所愛和所連結的，我給他們禮物，或是和他們聊天，或是教他們一些他們不知道的事情。

神就是神！祂是昔在，今在，永在的神。然而，祂的愛是如此奧秘，我們要始終心存敬畏。這就是為什麼我們要敬拜祂。希望你今天就有那一種神秘感！上帝在人類的心裡種下了關於祂的神秘感。當你走過這個季節時，尋求祂的心吧。檢視你所有的關係，查看是否還有神秘感在其中運作。然後默想你與上帝的關係。



Day 15 of 21: Embracing the Mystery!

This is a season that we must press into faith, and expect angelic help. This is also a season to become aware of God in our life and in our society. His Presence should be the defining influence in how we are directed on a daily basis. We want to continue allowing His light to shine brighter and brighter, so no darkness can remain. Consequently, we must resist religion! Religion has methods and rituals attached to how we present our life to a Holy God. God is longing for relationship, not religion. He gave His Son as a sacrifice to open our eyes to Who He really is, and the freedom he can restore in our lives. His best premise and promise is that His children are able to surpass themselves by entering into a relationship with the Creator of the world. By yielding our heart to His Son who resurrected and overcame death, hell, and the grave, and was witnessed by many, and by allowing His Spirit to dwell in our spirit, we can now have access to Father’s heart and love freely. Mankind, who are part of this world, can have relationship with the One who is greater than this world. 

To know God, we must have a sense of MYSTERY. In any healthy relationship, one must never lose the mystery. When we lose mystery and wonder in a relationship, familiarity takes over. I love to surprise my wife, kids, those I love and those I am associated with by giving them gifts, or speaking to them or letting them know something that they would not normally know. God is God! He is the same yesterday, today and forever. However, His love is an incredible mystery that man must remain in awe of. This is why worship Him. May you have a sense of that mystery today! God has implanted in the hearts of mankind the mystery of Himself. Seek His heart as you progress through this season. Analyze every relationship you have and see if there is a mystery working in that relationship. Then ponder your relationship with God.
