(incomplete) thoughts on the divine

i was born questioning (or so i like to think...one can never really tell nowadays)
And I said unto him: I know that he loveth his children; nevertheless, I do not know the meaning of all things.
-1 Nephi 11: 17
sometimes i think that is all you really can know.

i struggle with the word "know". other mormons seem to use it so liberally (my word choice here made me giggle a little) but i silently try to remember the following verse.

Faith is not to have a perfect knowledge of things; therefore if ye have faith ye hope for things which are not seen, which are true.
-Alma 32:21
it helps.


sometimes.
