The Mind of God

"So no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God." 1 Corinthians 2:11 (NIV)

🌿

I have tried to guess at God's mind the way one guesses at a stranger's, piecing together clues, hoping I landed somewhere close to the truth.

🌱

But You do not guess. You know His thoughts the way my own spirit knows my thoughts, from the inside, completely, without translation loss.

And You have been given to me, not to keep His mind a secret, but to make it known.

When I have sensed, suddenly, what He wanted in a moment I had no way of knowing on my own, that was You, sharing what only You could fully know.

I called it a hunch.

It was the mind of God, translated into a language I could actually receive.

🌾

Forgive me for guessing at what You are willing to reveal.

You know His thoughts completely.

And You share them with whoever will listen.

Spirit who knows His mind, translate for me what I cannot reach on my own.

A Prayer of Thanksgiving

Thank You, Holy Spirit, for knowing the thoughts of God completely.

Thank You for sharing what I could never have guessed alone.

Reveal His mind to me today. Amen.
