My personal reflection

My personal reflection is usually in the form of a conversation with God and usually includes both sides of the conversation. I know it's weird but that's how the Lord speaks to me.

He explained everything in private

Speak to me Lord so I know it's you
Mk 4:26-34

Jesus said to the crowds: "This is how it is with the kingdom of God; it is as if a man were to scatter seed on the land and would sleep and rise night and day and through it all the seed would sprout and grow, he knows not how. Of its own accord the land yields fruit, first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear. And when the grain is ripe, he wields the sickle at once, for the harvest has come."

He said, "To what shall we compare the kingdom of God, or what parable can we use for it? It is like a mustard seed that, when it is sown in the ground, is the smallest of all the seeds on the earth. But once it is sown, it springs up and becomes the largest of plants and puts forth large branches, so that the birds of the sky can dwell in its shade." With many such parables he spoke the word to them as they were able to understand it. Without parables he did not speak to them, but to his own disciples he explained everything in private
.

He explained everything in private

Lord,

You talk to me in private, yet I still doubt. I don't want to doubt. Lord, I want to know what is you and what is not.

Use your feelings. The evil one stings, you know that. Separate that, then remember I only speak in love. If there is no sting and it is not loving it is you. Trust what you know.

What if I am telling myself what I want to hear?

You don't. You speak negatively to yourself. At least now you do.
