Do You Know the Thoughts of God?

…but just as it is written, "THINGS WHICH EYE HAS NOT SEEN AND EAR HAS NOT HEARD, AND which HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HEART OF MAN, ALL THAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM." For to us God revealed them through the Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, even the depths of God. For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so the thoughts of God no one knows except the Spirit of God. 1 Corinthians 2:9-11
 
God knows us totally and completely…but we only know what He reveals about Himself to us. The Holy Spirit works in and through us giving us wisdom and insight—but I don’t think we’ll truly know God until we get to Heaven. Belonging to an omniscient God is sometimes a bit humbling. Sometimes I feel unworthy to be a part of God’s family—for Him to know me so well. Then I am reminded…For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this is not your own doing, it is the gift of God—not because of works, lest any man (or woman) should boast. Ephesians 2:8-9. What a gift He has given me…given us. To know of God is good knowledge to have. To know God personally is truly a bountiful gift—overflowing with love and mercy. When you love someone…and they love you…you want to know everything about them. You want to share your lives—together. To know God—including the Holy Spirit—better, we need to spend time in His Word. That has a familiar ring to it. Know God through His Word. Plan today to spend time with Him—The love of your life.
 
Prayer ~ Holy Spirit, help me to arrange my day, my time, to always have time for You—to know You more fully. Please give me insight to understand and truly know know…not just have head knowledge of You. Give me wisdom to apply and share that knowledge with others—that they can be filled with Your love, too.
 
Special Blessings on Elizabeth and Ben on Their Wedding Day!
May they always seek God ---together.
