but there is a God in heaven
“No mere human can solve the king’s mystery, I don’t care who it is—no wise man, enchanter, magician, diviner. But there is a God in heaven who solves mysteries, and He has solved this one.”
I don’t have all the answers. Honestly, in my search for some, I’ve just ended up with more questions.
The past year has been filled with more uncertainties, more shifting sand, than I’ve ever imagined possible. It’s felt as though everything in my life has a question mark after it. And I so want to start finding some periods. I desire conclusion. I want certainty and understanding. I long for things to simply make sense.
But they don’t.
Not only is my future a mystery, much of my present is as well. And while I love a good mystery in print or on screen, right now I’m really not enjoying the mystery that is my life. I’m burdened by the ambiguity of my situation and by my paradoxical emotions. My own heart is an enigma I can’t make sense of.
My life—my circumstances, my understanding, my way forward, my very heart—is a mystery. One that no mere human can solve, I don’t care who it is.
But there is a God in heaven who solves mysteries. And He’s solved even this one.
Mystery… yes… He has solved even this one… I believe that. And I can’t wait to see unfold before us what your future does hold. I pray God hears your heart and answers your every hearts desire. Love you

You are on the brink, baby. On the brink of something good… I can feel it.

Exactly! He has GREAT plans and they are unfolding and it is wonderful! Keep standing next to Him and He will show you. You are standing in victory sweet sister. What a testimony to His greatness in your life! Love you!
Wow. That’s great. It’s a good reminder for me, too.
I don’t mean to be nosey but I’m think I missed out on a few big months of your life. Is there some older posts I can read to give me a little update? You are in my prayers. Know that you will come out stronger than before. Love you alece!
Amen. You have perfectly described what I’ve been trying to say to my family for quite some time.
“I thought I had the answers, now I only seem to have questions. But God…”
As I read this for the second time, it was like I saw a picture of tangled knots that He’s ever so gently and slowly untangling, one at a time.

mmmm… i love that picture.
I tend to think I am in impossible situations. Uncertain for sure. Except…
“but God…”
Genesis 50:20
2 Samuel 14:14
Psalm 73:26
Romans 5:8
exactly!
i like what @ngie wrote: ” you are on the brink of something good!”
Thank you for this. I’m searching for periods only to find question marks at every turn. So glad that God is the GREAT mystery solver. What can we do but trust Him.
You have found your guide. Keep working at finding the right questions, and trust in your faith to guide you to the right answers.
