Mysteries


Who doesn't get intrigued by mysteries? 

The plot twists keep you guessing until the end and have you on the edge of your seat. It could get your mind off this crisis for an hour or so.

My husband stayed up for a Mannatech Live event. He's been using their supplements for his health, so he still looks and feels much younger than he is.

He needed to rest the whole morning, so I had the time to myself.

I watched two mystery movies today. 

Mystery Movies

Murder on the Orient Express (which I watched alone) and Knives Out (which I watched with my husband after his nap).

Both these movies are star-studded. Have great cinematography and an excellent plot.

I suspected the wrong people in both movies, too. 😛

I'm glad I got to focus on something entertaining and, for a little while, forgot about the crazy times we are in.

Do you enjoy a mystery movie?

The Mystery of God


Can you discover the depths of God? 
Can you discover the limits of the Almighty? 
-Job 11:7


I've always wondered why Jesus speaks in parables or ways that are hard to comprehend if you take things literally.

Why not answer the questions directly, Lord? Why all this secrecy and mystery?

But if I understand all His ways, then I'll have His wisdom and boy, that is scary.

He is God, and I'm a mortal. He's my Creator, and I'm His creation.

I'll let Him do His will.

I'll do what I can do, but for those I cannot control, I will surrender to Him.

I love a mystery. Mainly how God works in my life.

I'm still a work in progress; there is still much room for improvement. But I am happy I am the way I am now because God works in my life.

He's not yet done.

I know things aren't going my way, but I believe this crisis will end soon. And I'm excited to see the plot twist. 

I know it will be in my favor. And yours, too!


But in that coming day, no weapon turned against you will succeed. You will silence every voice raised up to accuse you. These benefits are enjoyed by the servants of the LORD; their vindication will come from me. I, the LORD, have spoken! 
-Isaiah 54:17
