Revelation Needed

I have been praying for some help. It is become increasingly clear to me that a huge problem for most of us is that we don't know what we don't know and only God can help us. It may seem self evident to the astute, but we can't see what we can't see and we can't hear what we can't hear which is why we keep finding ourselves in more messes with more troubles and more difficulties. Only a revelation from heaven will open our eyes so that we can make better choices and better decisions and finally be made whole. My prayer has been something like this, "Help me Lord with what I don't know that I don't know that I really need to know to walk upright before you".

You see, I really want to please the Lord in every area of my life, but without a revelation from God, we are in trouble. Only He can show us how to please him and how relate to people and how to live as people who are sold out for Jesus. As he reveals himself to us, we receive life and help in a world in which everything is colored by sin and selfishness. We need a revelation of Jesus if we are going to survive another day, another month, and another year. Thank God that He delights to reveal himself to his children! Jesus is the consummate revelation of God. He said, "If you have seen me, you have seen my father which is in heaven". May this be a year to see him more clearly than we have ever seen before!
