Who or what is the reason why things happen in our lives the way they do? Whether a calm life or a chaotic one, all events have a source. Sometimes it is definitely us that brought on certain moments. But, many times there is another reason.
------------------------------------------------------ The Reason A life is so full of events... It's conceived, by chance, not hardly, because of the Reason. Born on time or early, soon found at home or in the hospital for some time, due to the Reason. Kept clean, clothed and fed, life grows, sometimes calmly, sometimes stressed, covered by the Reason. Love begins, spreads and happenings happen, good days, hard times, life learns and adapts, wanted and unwanted surprises come, growth by the Reason. Life passes through schooling into adulthood, yet, the hard schooling remains, between those glorious days and horrendous nights, enduring with the Reason. During many lives great gains are made, in others huge losses are experienced, why either happens is only known by the Reason. The Reason behind life, that's with us each day is our Creator, God, and we are guided along via the Holy Spirit given us after Jesus' Ascension. And this same Jesus from His Heavenly throne intercedes for us daily, whether we feel it or not, He's there and with us always. Amen to the Reason, who's with us day and night until our time here is done and we are called Home. mAt 06/04/25

Almost every time I write some prose it is because a title comes to mind first. Then the first stanza sets the format and it continues from there. I was just thinking about the various phases of life we all go through, the various transitions that take place.
Transitions Growing:
Learning:
Loving:
Yearning:
Believing:
Grieving:
Leaving:
Arriving:
Living:

We have always known
there is a great unknown, sometimes a lifelong unknown, at least until we have grown, growing out of ourselves putting our inner child behind and facing the facts of life. We have always felt it, a great void to fill. Many times we scramble, doing all kinds of crazy to fill it, but almost nothing can. Perhaps the love of another will do, but even that is incomplete. We have to stop running away from it or hiding from it. That great unknown, ever present, gnawing on our insides, how empty and painful it can be. Perhaps the Great Known will solve the puzzle and fill the void. We all know, if we're honest, the solution to our greatest need. We see Him all around, every day, but for too long we ignore Him until hopefully, meekly, we just get up, open the doorway, the one to our hearts and let Him in. Tis a solitary pursuit for most till we stop long enough to hear the absolute quiet tranquility of our aloneness. Only then can we detect His still small voice and begin to learn again. We we find, Lord willing, is what we've always felt, that the great unknowns of life were created by the Great Known, our Creator God, who wants us to know Him as much as He wants to know us. Unlearn this world so you can learn of its Creator. Embrace Him and live while time remains. Don't get stuck in the muck of this life, instead look towards the life to come. mAt 10/02/24
1Th 5:5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
