I Don’t Understand Why. Lesson 35 of 40

I have learned to be at peace with not having all the answers and to put my trust in the God who does.  I won’t always understand the why behind the what, and that’s OK.  This is a hard place to get to if we lack faith.  We as people love to be in control and when we don’t have answers it can drive us crazy. The enemy can have a field day in our minds if we don’t get to that place of accepting that the secret things belong to God.    I don’t always understand the mind and ways of God. However, I can rest in peace knowing that He is faithful, and whatever He allows, it’s for a purpose and it will always work for my good.

Isaiah 55: 8-9 “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.
