Can We Know Why We Do A Thing?
The question is the same as the title. Can we be sure of or know why we do x? Perhaps x is the act of helping an old lady across the street, or maybe x is intentionally entering into a debate. Can we know what our true intentions are? I'll provide context after some thoughts have been shared.

    That question really brings to mind the verses, "A man's heart deviseth his way, but the Lord directeth his steps" (Prov. 16:9) and "O Lord, I know that the way of man is not in himself; it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps" (Jer. 10:23). Before a couple of weeks ago, I probably wouldn't have given this question much thought, but recently I've had the privilege to see God take all these decisions that I had made for myself, "on my own," and show me that even when I'd been too stiff-necked to ask for His guidance, He had directed my heart and led me to where I would never have guessed I needed to be. I believe the only one who can truly know our hearts is the One who made them.

About Me

Name: Rickie
Home: United States
About Me: I am currently working on a Master of Arts in Apologetics. This site is intended to stimulate discussion, as well as, inform. I welcome differing opinions, especially opposing views that engage me intellectually and challenge me to think in new ways. I may continue to disagree with you, but I welcome the dialogue. The beautiful woman in the picture with me is my wife. I personally think I married one of the most giving and beautiful women in all the world, an opinion that is not open for debate.
