God Gagged

So after blogging that I would forgive, I got up and passed my boss's desk and noticed a book on prophesy sitting there. I picked it up and had a flick through, expecting to see the usual headings and content that only glaze over the broad themes of prophesy with no real detail and understanding on what it is and how it works. I've flicked through heaps of these books over the years and not found one that has any valuable depth to it. Reading a bit of this one I suddenly got excited and thought 'this is the book I've been looking for!' A timely reward from the 'Big Guy' for doing the right thing moments before. I asked my boss if I could 'borrow it sometime...' She thought about it and said she had just gotten it back from a person who had borrowed it from her four years ago, and she would like to read it again first, and mentioned it was a great book! 'Fair enough', I thought, 'if you had learnt anything from it the last time, you would know that its timely return was specificly for me, and that you didn't pick up on that, just shows that you do need to read the book again.' I thought about the bit I had just read; that sometimes prophesy is hard when God wants you to be silent on a topic and you can't say anything. I also know it's even harder when your not allowed - even to say 'that you're not allowed to say anything...' So I just said 'cool' and went back to my desk.
