All is peace. All is balanced.
YHWH is teaching me.
All is peace. All is balanced. There is no chaos, there is no unbalance.
There is only YHWH. YHWH is peace. YHWH is balance.
What seems to be chaos and disorder is only a small part of God's balance and peace.
You see, YHWH is eternal and He holds time in His hand. We are bound by time and are forced to flow through only a part of it. Ecclesiastes 3:11 says "He has made all things beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end." We are eternal, but we only see a small picture of eternity. However, then we shall know Eternity just as we are known (1 Corinthians 13). I say all is peace because, looking at eternity as a whole, it is balanced and peaceful. Only, what we see as balance isn't always what YHWH sees as balance. We assume that balance must be equality, i.e .5+.5=1. This is balance, but so is .7+.3=1. They both end in one whole, but if you only see the means, you cannot possibly understand the end. YHWH sees all and knows the whole, but we only see some of the parts. So what seems unbalanced ends in goodness and peace, but man cannot find out what He does from beginning to end.
That's all kind of deep and complicated. Maybe one of these days I'll get it better and be able to explain it more simply. What do you think?

We sure do miss you here in the DTES.
I was attending my class at WAR College,when you poped into my mind,that's when I realized how much I really do miss the Holly Session.
And how I have to spent time getting to know the new War College students.
P.S. Check out The life and Times of Jen's Kitchen.
