Do you understand the Word of God?

"... Do you really understand what you are reading?" Acts 8:30 AMP

Blessed are you because you take time to read and learn the Word of God!  However, do you find yourself confused, lost; not fully understanding what you are reading?  If so, don't worry, we all do!  The Bible can be confusing, especially when are minds are going a hundred miles an hour with all the issues of life.  However, understanding is yours  - all you have to do is ask.  Ask, first and foremost, the Lord, and He will give you understanding, and/or He will lead you to ask someone that does know, and can explain it to you.  God wants us to fellowship with other believers, so if you feel confused over scripture, listen to God, He'll do one of three things: explain it to you, lead you to a situation that will clarify what He is saying, or lead you to someone that you can fellowship and learn from.  

Yes, it is OK not to understand everything you read, because that's where the Spirit can really come in and personally lead you to people, signs, miracles, and understanding, which not only will bring you understanding, but will bring you one giant step closer in your relationship with Jesus.
