Trust God’s Ways
– From Ending Your Day Right by Joyce Meyer
Isaiah 55:8-9
“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.
Did you know the lack of understanding of how God does things can wear you out? If you don’t understand His ways you could end up fighting and resisting things, thinking they are an attack from the devil, when they are an attempt by the Lord to work something good in your life.
You know God does not do bad things. But sometimes you may fail to realize that everything that feels bad to you is not necessarily bad for you. Reminding yourself that His ways are not your ways will help you trust Him even when your circumstances are hard to understand. As this busy day comes to a close, just put yourself in the hands of almighty God, and rest in the knowledge that He is good and knows what’s best.
