Isaiah 55:9 (NKJV) 9 “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.
Many times, as we walk through things in life, things proceed in a direction that we didn’t anticipate. And many times, we get results that we weren’t expecting. This can be pleasing or it can be disappointing, depending on how we look at it.
Sometimes when we approach God and ask Him for help, the situation we were facing may take what we perceive to be an odd turn, in a direction that feels unfamiliar and uncomfortable to us.
But that’s OK!
God sees and knows way more than we usually give Him credit for. He knows what it will take to fix a problem. He knows how to solve things in ways that are beyond our thinking or comprehension.
He is God. His ways are higher than ours. And His thoughts are higher than our thoughts. So, He can do things that we can’t. He can put things in place that we can’t. He can set things in order that we can’t.
And, best of all, the results He gets will always be much better than the results we could get.
We won’t always understand why He does things the way He does them, especially at first. But, when we get through a trial or see a problem solved, it makes it much easier to understand it all.
And as we look back, we will be thankful that we let Him handle it, and we didn’t try to fix it on our own.
