“ For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.” Isa 55:8-9
All through the ages people have thought of themselves as pretty clever in understanding and explaining things going on around them. Evidence of this would be Eve’s thinking that she had a better idea than God concerning life. I believe the past fifty years of extreme advancement in technology and knowledge has made many in the world even more confident of their amazing ability to figure everything out. However, as Isaiah 55:8-9 makes clear, God’s thoughts and ways are beyond measure greater than any human will ever be capable of. This fact should put an end to our fretting hearts; rest and peace of the soul come as a result of truly trusting our almighty God concerning EVERYTHING.
This Thursday morning as we complete our study of Job 3-10 we will discuss this very practical matter in our lives–do I trust God more than I trust anyone else? No matter what happens, God is good and doing good. Please join us for a great time of encouragement.
