Reflecting...

My family and I in some way are still hurting...I wish we could understand why everything happens in certain ways.  I was praying before reading my Bible today for God to help me understand and also to speak to me during my quiet time.  Can I say that God is so good?  Cause He definitely is!  Below is the passage that stood out to me and was God totally comforting my family and I.  I shared it with my parents as well and that was pretty cool that they felt it too.

1 Corinthians 2:9-16:

"No eye has seen,
no ear has heard,
no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him.

But God has revealed it to us by his Spirit.  The Spirit searches all things, even the things of God.  For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the man's spirit within him?  In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.  We have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us.  This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words.  The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.  The spiritual man makes judgement about all things, but he himself is not subject to any man's judgement.  For who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct him?  But we have the mind of Christ."
