SEAMLESS
Seamless for me in this context is continuity without distraction. The perfect flow that doesn't appear to have a beginning or end like space.
I'm not trying to be intentionally vague, but I was thinking more in terms of thought and truth as it relates to the Lord. With God truth and knowledge would be perfect. It wouldn't suffer from being confusion or be illogical.
We face so many things in life that are less than perfect. As they say to every rule there is an exception. And likewise with analogies, no matter how effective, they do fall apart eventually in terms of application.
Man's wisdom is never seamless. It will always have breaks and gray areas from what we don't know that fogs the information from being totally black and white in accuracy.
There are many areas where the degree of certainty grants us an element of confidence that it is ultimate truth, but it will never obtain that quality completely. I wish it was otherwise, but it never works out that way in life it seems.
Where I'm headed for this posting is to point out that our minds our used to things being marred and flawed. That doesn't keep us from wishing for perfection and even seeking it, but it always eludes us.
However, when we do encounter the Lord in some way and his spirit touches our lives we become exposed to that form of seamless sagacity that is totally foreign to our reality. Such encounters can be confusing and difficult at times to digest.
For can we truly be given a glimpse into the flow of wisdom that is universal and not be left to a degree with an inability to appreciate its reality? With time and familiarity through regular communion with God's spirit the strangeness does fade.
The problem is that it is difficult even when one grown in experiences to always having the ability to explain that to others who aren't so blessed. What can become a very natural revelatory process can seem weird to someone that has never experienced such encounters.
It is often more difficult to fathom other's reactions than we might think at times. Personally, if I've had some revelation that I feel came from the Lord and somebody ridicules it I do get offended.
That is because like many, I feel deep down I'm telling the truth and the person should see it as such. Later, in the more calm state of thinking I realize that it isn't me they have rejected, but the Lord.
And that is an experience many know far too well when sharing one's faith. That is a time to rejoice over the light see and not get upset over another's blindness.
