I can't tell you how many times, a history buff, I have wanted to know more a life or situation. If you think about we actually know very little about historical events and people. At some level this always bothered me because as a history student I was asked to give analysis of people and events and I knew there was always more there than meets the eye. Take for example the life of Christ. There huge portions of His life that we have no information on. In fact, the Bible tells us that the miracles recorded are only a part of the picture. As frustrating as that may be for us some times there must be a reason for it.
This same principle is true in my day to day life. I want to see so much more of His plan yet if I did my faith would be the weaker for it. In the end maybe that is the reason why we know so little about the past or the future. God made it this way as a means of developing our ability to have faith, to trust in that which we cannot see.
Just a thought for you before the Hawks game.
