Intrigue - February 26th
I believe there is something inside each of us that draws us toward a good mystery. When I was a kid, liked playing the board game "Clue" and logically working my way toward the killer. As an adult, I love shows like "Forensic Files" and "Masterminds" - not because I enjoy crime, but because I love trying to mentally unravel the mystery. God is cloaked in mystery. We can obviously know his voice - "He who belongs to God hears what God says" (John8:47). We can experience His presence, but we never see His face. We can reason and logically order our lives - based on what we currently know and see - but rarely do we think like God. "My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord" (Isaiah 55:8). I will never unravel the mystery of God from Clinton, MS. But the pieces that He does allow us to unravel...the small realizations of who He is, make me desperate for more.
