Bible Verse
“’For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,’ declares the Lord. As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.” (Isaiah 55:8-9)
Before these words to God’s people, Isaiah reminds them “to seek the Lord while he is near.” God is always close by, but we tend to drift away from Him. And when we are far from Him, it’s really hard for us to understand what He might be telling us, or how He might be leading us. No one could possibly know how God thinks or what He is planning. His knowledge and wisdom are far greater than anything we could know. We would be foolish to try and fit God into our mold – to make His plans and purposes conform to ours. Instead, we should try and strive to fit into His Plans. Stay near to Him, and continue to seek Him! When we do that, we will find Him and learn to listen carefully for what He wants us to do and follow His plans.
