I Believe You God

I don't know of the Bible claiming to be Your "Word", dictated. But I do believe that it, in fact is still used to perfectly represent you at the exact moments you intend it to and in no others.

That these moments of encountering your words are not at the turning of a page or harmonizing with a song. Rather at the moment you mysteriously choose and reveal to us by faith. Faith that isn't conjured by the cheap recycling of mans services, but the great and awesome power of the one creator.

Tonight, as with many other nights, the words of the Bible have apprehended me and my present circumstances in a way that is clearly intentional and not simply happenstance.

Its by Faith, in the nature of our Creator - your character, that we come to truly know you. Not by words, or actions, circumstances or environment. But by all things that provoke us in faith to believe completely and progressively in You.

I don't know exactly why you use the Bible so often as your mouthpiece, but I believe you do. And that you did tonight. And I thank you for your consideration and affection for me.

I also thank you for the revelation of how my character, in its purest form, reveals to me no less than the same about you. That is to say that if I'm capable of love, generosity, excitement, joy, singing, dancing, and so much more... then the same must be true of you as well because nothing could come to exist without you first.

You are God, and I am not. I am human, and your ways are above my ways. I am free from the burden of omniscience and it's liabilities. Thank you God. I love you. And I wish to love you as rightly and truly and fiercely as you love me.

In the midst of an exponentially complicated fallout of a volatile act by another person; I read Ecclesiastes' final two chapters. Exhorting it's reader not to allow the excitement and events of your youth to overshadow your awareness and affection for your Creator. But to begin life there and carry that forward.

This is a divine message from God to me because this has been a topic in my life ever so presently, as recent as this morning.
