Not now. ( Deuteronomy 29 v29 )

 Chuck Swindoll one of my favourite preachers, tells how as a young man attending a seminary,found himself struggling with questions as to the whys in life.One of his tutors whom he respected and admired greatly, said something like this to him,'' Chuck , I've come to the place where I believe only on rare occasions does God tell us why, so I've decided to stop asking'', It is in 1 Corinthians 13 v 12 we read, 'Now we see things imperfectly as in a cloudy mirror but then we will see everything with perfect clarity'.  Our Saviour said to Peter ,''You don't understand now what I'm doing,but someday you will''.( John 13 v 7)

                                                   'Not till the loom is silent,

                                                   And the shuttles cease to fly,

                                                  Shall God explain the reason why,

                                                  The dark threads are so needful,

                                                  In the weavers skilful hand

                                                  As the threads of gold and silver

                                                  In the pattern He has planned'

                                                            By Betty Kramer
