God's Ways are Not Our Ways!!

Isaiah 55: 8-9
"My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways my ways, says the Lord. As high as the heavens are above the earth, so high are my ways above your ways and my thoughts above your thoughts."
Rom 11: 34
"For who has known the mind of the Lord or who has been his counselor?"
Wis 9:13
"What man knows God's counsel, or who can conceive what our Lord intends?

Our knowledge is so limited compared to God, our creator and redeemer. One can think of the limited knowledge of an infant compared to the knowledge of one who has been open to learning and growth in wisdom. The knowledge a child in 8th grade has compared to a child in pre-school. The knowledge a physicist has compared to the knowledge of a history teacher. The knowledge a great golfer has compared to the knowledge of a great baseball player. Our knowledge is limited where God's knowledge is not. We are finite creatures who live in time and space. Our God is infinite and lives outside time and space which boggles our minds and imaginations!
