HAVE YOU ever talked to one of these brilliant PhD-kind-of-people and you don\u2019t know what they\u2019re talking about? You know it\u2019s deep, even though you don\u2019t understand any of it because they\u2019re just communicating on a whole different plane, on a whole different level.<\/p>\n
At the heart of many of our dilemmas is our inability to know God\u2019s ways. God says that as high as the heavens are above the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts. They\u2019re not only bigger, they\u2019re higher. His thoughts are at another level.376<\/p>\n
[Circumstances, Understanding; God\u2019s Ways, Unpredictability of]<\/p>\n
Ps. 92:5; Isa. 55:8\u20139<\/p>\n
I REMEMBER telling God as a teenager, \u201cGod, I\u2019m going to do anything You want, but I will not pastor.\u201d He said, \u201cUm-hmm.\u201d<\/p>\n
He\u2019s full of surprises and His ways are not your ways. His thoughts are not your thoughts.377<\/p>\n
[God\u2019s Ways, Unpredictability of]<\/p>\n
Isa. 55:8\u20139; 1 Cor. 2:16<\/p>\n
ONE difference between God and us is that we have different viewpoints. Take a parade. We watch a parade progressively. We watch one band come after another. We watch the parade go by one band at a time. God sees the whole parade. He doesn\u2019t have to wait for each band to turn the corner. From the starting place to the finish, He sees the whole parade. He sees the whole package. That\u2019s why \u201cwithout faith it\u2019s impossible to please God.\u201d You\u2019ve got to believe He sees what you can\u2019t. You\u2019ve got to believe that He sees what is not visible to you because you can\u2019t see around the corner.378<\/p>\n
