God Thinking XI - Tough Truths 12

"I am convinced that all our efforts to reveal how God works apart from scriptural revelation is the basis for all false images of God and false theology about God’s work among mankind.

Man’s quest to prove himself right has overthrown his sensibility to pure truth, pure anything for that matter.

The true seeker of God’s self-disclosure on this matter will be moved to be in the presence of God, more and more, until he/she learns to trust God. 

At that moment when you do lean in closely, and you do trust God, faith will become real; the outcome or the circumstance will not prevail over your faith - Your faith will prevail over the outcome or circumstance.

Can you just be satisfied with God for a season, trusting in Him and the way He handles the affairs of this world, including yours?

I think you should."
