OJ : Steadfast faith (Mon) 12 Feb
Isaiah 55:8-9 "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord.
For as the heavens are higher than the earth , so are my ways higher than ur ways and my thoughts than your thoughts"
What is verse trying to say...What God plans for us is definitely many many times better than what we plan for ourselves.
as his ways and thoughts are higher than our ways and thoughts.It's hard for us to fathom and understand.
Building our faith on what we can do to fulfill God's plans..
and NOT what God can do for us to fulfill our own plans,
if tt's the case, see , who is in control now?
it's us. and not God..
God becomes an instrument to help us fulfill our own selfish plans.... X X X
As we live by faith and not sight.
Even in times when God didn't answer our requests or expectations, we muz know that
Our Faith is not based on what God's works but who He is.
He is faithful even when I'm faithless.
He is the God who loves me forever even when no one give a hoot abt me.
The father who is merciful to what I have done wrong against him.
who opens his arms wide and give me a warm-welcome-back-hug.
the one who stand by me in troubled times.
This page of QT has taught me to
seek His heart and not His works
Sometimes I fall , I got faithless but in times of crisis , He is there to pick me up and comfort me, n yes, oso knowing that His plans are always much much better than my plans =)
