Mystery

Life is shrouded in mystery. That is what it always was. Yes, we have faith and yes, we have reason, but to deny this basic fact of mystery is to deny the universe itself. All too often I want to figure it all out, out of fear or out of stubborn self-reliance. But it is what it is. What I strive to do is embrace the unknown, not cringe from it. I want to step out into the wild frontier. My soul is out there. My calling is out there. Out of Ur. Into the newness of the wild frontiers of the heart. I seek not the charted path. I seek to find myself in that place that is yet to be discovered. Not so much externally, but deep inside. In the places I am afraid of within myself.
