However, really briefly, today I was touched by the messages of trials that can be aided by families, and how we are put here with the people we are because they are in the best position to help us.
I have also thought about how we can be like mosquitoes to God. This may sound degrading, and no--the analogy doesn't fit for much, but let me explain my thoughts:
I recently went camping. In my tent, mosquitoes came in. Then they endlessly tried to fly out- of the roof. This naturally couldn't happen. And since I didn't want them in either, I tried to get them out by directing them to the door. Which, if they followed, they were given what they desired.
This can be like prayer. Sometimes we get stuck, and if we would follow God's counsel, we can get what we "want," freedom to move, to grow, to live. But because it comes in a way we don't expect, we can easily get trapped.
That's all I have time for today, but you get a very brief overview anyway :)
