For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
I Corinthians 13:12
The older I get, the more I realize how little I actually understand completely. I learn things almost daily that confirm that God is in Complete Control, that I am NOT, and that my hope is in trusting in God’s plan, even when I don’t understand! Especially when I don’t understand!
And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
1 Timothy 3:16
God uses people, sometimes the most unlikely people, in ways that we can’t explain or understand. Let Him! Don’t be so sanctimonious that you won’t let God be God, just because it doesn’t fit inside the box of your understanding. God will not contradict His Word, the Bible. Beyond that, He is Limitless.
God closed the mouths of lions, protected three Hebrew Boys from the fire, rolled back the waters of the red sea and the chilly Jordan, brought forth plagues, used ravens to feed the prophet, made an ax head swim, a donkey talk and on and on and on, for His people in situations. I believe it’s safe to say that we all have situations.
Never, ever try to write the ending to the story, let the Master finish what He started. Stop trying to finish His sentences and leave the pen in His hand.
God Bless you, richly!
