Simple Secrets

Psalm 25:14 ~ The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.

I found this to be an interesting thought: that those not saved really haven't a clue what we are talking about sometimes. It reminded me of a part in 1st Corinthians 1.

 18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
 19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
 20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
 21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
 22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:
 23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;
 24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
 25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

Last week was a very good week FOR me. It took a couple 'spankings' for me to finally get it into my head that GOD REALLY IS SUFFICIENT, and though we do need each other, people really aren't there for me ALL the time, and God WANTS to fill my deepest need. And He CAN!!!! Sharing that with a couple people, I found it very hard not to feel humiliated that I, at 18, am grasping such a simple fact about life. It sounded childish. That's because it is. Jesus said that if we are not like children we will not enter God's Kingdom. This simple fact, that God loves ME, and is ENOUGH for me, is foolishness- according to the world. But it is a precious, precious comfort to a child of God.
