There are passages in the Scriptures that every time I meditate in them the Holy Spirit comes with power showering me with a sense of God’s majesty, mystery and love but never an understanding of what the passage means or anything that I might teach others from it. I have always been perplexed by that and wondered what is He getting at, why the movement of the Spirit brooding upon that passage yet no deeper understanding?
Today I was reading in The Cloud of Unknowing and saw these words,
“He whom neither men nor angels can grasp by knowledge can be embraced by love. For the intellect of both men and angels is too small to comprehend God as he is in himself.”
Hopefully I will now be free to enjoy those beautiful stories and embrace God by love not concerning myself with knowledge of him who on purpose maintains himself shrouded in darkness and now and then allows a deeper peek at his person.
