Life can look rotten!

Soul Snack 9/80 ... A Rotten Life?


Resonating wildly around my cortex are vast quantities of questions that will never know answers.

Rambling with carnal affections through my spirit and soul are sins to be conquered.

Rolling richly over my body the ubiquitous sense that this life JUST can't be all there is.

Both convicting and convincing me are these far too inconvenient suggestions that disturb my desired indulgences. They cause me to grasp for a higher place of unassailable breadth and unknowable depth. Now I am satisfyingly assured that this life can never be all there is.

A rest that isn't, a disturbing interchange with a loved one or a broken bank balance, are simply further indicators of needing He who is so much greater than I can ever manage.

The drenching flow of dis-ease may cross my entire person, wealth may come to wicked and dishonour to the righteous - this I can't understand. It simply helps me know how much more I need Him, who alone knows so much more.

He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end. Eccl 3:11
