Isaiah 55:8-9
8 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,”
declares the LORD.
9 “As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Can I hear an “AMEN!” Seriously, read today’s verses again and then yell out, “Thank You, Lord!” Why am I so excited about this? Take a moment and meditate on just a few of your thoughts in the past week, maybe just day, or even just the last hour? Were your thoughts around, fear, anger, revenge, pain, distracted by hunger? Yep! I am glad my thoughts are not God’s thoughts.
God is above fear, anger, revenge, and yes even distractions. He sees all, knows all, and knows what to do with it all. We, humans, get cut off in traffic and all of sudden become raging idiots. God gets yelled at, screamed at, denied, cussed at, has His name used to cuss someone else out, lied to, lied about, stabbed in the back, turned on, thrown under the bus, and blamed for everything. I am talking about just His kids! What is His response? I love you so much I am going to send my Son to die for you, so I can offer you grace.
So, yes, I am very glad God’s thoughts are not my thoughts, neither are His ways my ways.
The world would be in a lot more trouble if
they were.
Lord, I know I can seem selfish sometimes and want things done my way. Thank you for not listening to me! ~amen
