E Pluribus Unum

The above phrase means "out of the many, one". Many don't know the meaning of that phrase even when its on the most common thing in the world. A simple American Coin. Many things in life surface from this motto or phrase. For example, out of the many problems, one solution;Out of the many states, one nation.

At this current phase of life, I find myself basking in important questions like what am I going to do with my life? How can I be a better person? Why is it I am not who I want to be? Why is my life bordering insanity because of boredom? We search and we search and never seem to find the answer. Somehow doing similar things everyday does seem to have its negative effects on a person. Its in the insanity in the cycle of life that we sometimes long for something more. Some turn to love (or in this age lust), addictions, people, religion to break this insane cycle to get a different gist out of life.

But is there more to this search? Does it truly lie in people, religion, addictions, or lust? Or is there something more. What is the quintessence of this life? What is it that would truly make you whole? Occasionally I feel that it's pointless to ask such questions because no one will answer and even if someone cared to answer there was too much to do to achieve that of which is spoken of. Yet true to its word, out of the many questions, one solution.

GOD is that solution.

Some would probably moan and groan at the option because many are either dead to that notion that God exists and posit that it is a means of constriction over the many countless options that life has provided before us. Yet this begs the question, how many of your options are actually your options? Remember that time which you were dared or challenged to break a rule that your parents told you not to break but you did it anyways because your friends dared you to? Or how many times have you gone clubbing (not because you liked it) but because your friends asked you to. Whereas putting yourself willfully under the watchful and secure hands of God, that is truly a choice. The first choice in life that you probably had to make on your own. Not because others asked you to but because you seek a life of wholesomeness and clarity.

There's a hard journey up ahead but when you have such a powerful being backing you, I don't think there'll ever be a problem. As it's written in the bible, If God is for us, who can be against us? {Rom 8:31 NIV}
