Divine Secrets

The secret of God is upon our tabernacle; into His mystery I dare not pry. Only this I know: with Him is strength, with Him is wisdom, and His wisdom have set darkness in our paths.  —Helen Keller

Helen Keller, blind and deaf, knew about darkness. She understood, probably more than any of us, what it meant to be lonely, alone, left in the darkness and the silence. Did she ever question God: “Why did you choose to take those two senses from me? Why did you leave me dependent on others for the rest of my life?” In spite of that understandable frustration, this is what she writes: it is in God’s wisdom that we don’t understand. God knows what’s best for us. Sometimes what is best for us is to not have all the answers. 

Are we content to learn what God wants to teach us, or are we constantly trying to pry into mysteries that he has chosen to keep hidden? Be content, sister, to let your Father teach you his lessons in his time.

His strength and his wisdom are enough.

Prayer: Lord, I don’t need to have all the answers because j know you’re in control.

1 Corinthians13:12– We don’t get see things clearly. We’re squinting in a fog, peering though a mist. But it won’t be long before the weather clears and the sun shines bright! We’ll all see it all then, see it all as clearly as God sees us, knowing him directly just as he knows us!
