just what’s happening right now…

in looking at why many times GOD doesn’t give us an explanation when we ask why, another reason is because we probably wouldn’t understand the explanation even if HE gave it to us.

the reason why is because GOD thinks through eternity.  HE sees everything that’s happened in the past and HE sees everything that’s going to happen in the future and HE knows what’s going on in your life right now. 

and GOD thinks in terms of generations.  we tend to think what’s happened in my life.  and not even my whole life but what’s happening at this very moment. 

i can’t see what happened a year ago or what’s going to happen a year in the future.  i’m only thinking about my pain right now.  GOD is taking it all in the perspective of eternity. 

if GOD tried to explain to you why things happen to you you’re just a cog in the wheel of the huge panorama of history.  so GOD would not be able to explain to you why this happens before this before this and how that thing that happened a hundred years ago is influencing this today and what you’re doing right now is going to influence a hundred years from today.  and on and on.  you probably wouldn’t understand it.

just a thought from the front porch…

We tend to overestimate our wee teeny brains, don't we? What arrogance! You're dealing with the tough stuff here - and only under extreme pressure and pain to we get even close to the tough stuff - so whatever you are/have walked through, hang in there!
