In Hopes of a Greater Understanding, pt.1

"For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways My ways," says 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."
Isaiah 56:8+9

Man in his arrogance believes that there has to be an explanation for everything that exists and occurs. After all, look at what has been discovered and accomplished through science and technology. It is astounding!
Many of us carry over this way of thinking to how we view God. We try to fit God into our expectations and our understanding of Him. This is a big mistake because His ways and thoughts are Higher than ours.Some commentators suggest using the word incomprehensible instead of higher.
The reality is, there is a divine nature to God that the human mind, at least at this time, cannot comprehend. How do I know? He just told us in His Word.
What can we do? Trust what He says and praise what He does.
May we seek Him daily and live a righteous, called out life.
