The invisible God

We are like fish swimming in a stream. We do what we do while God, like the stream, nudges us where he wills. We are in him [1] [2] [3], and we do not see him.

His work is often so subtle we are unaware of his presence and nudging. [4]

Since we cannot see or hear him [5]; how can he make himself known? Through the mystery book - prophetic riddle
