God Knows What’s Best

Scripture Reading: Isaiah 55

Focus Verses: 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.”

We have just finished celebrating Easter.  Jesus’ disciples did not understand Jesus’ death.  To them it was the darkest day in human history when Jesus died on a cross.  But God had a plan.  The darkest day in human history was followed three days later by the greatest day in human history, when Jesus came out of that grave.

Many times God does things in our lives that we don’t understand.  Storms and trials are always hard to understand.  We wonder how any good can come from them.  It all comes down to trust.  Do you trust that God is doing what is best for you?  It is during the storms of life that Satan want you to doubt God’s love for you.  But you can know that God is always faithful, and He knows what is  best even when we don’t know what is best for ourselves.  We can trust Him that His ways and thoughts will always be higher than ours.  So be encouraged today.  God will never leave you alone in a storm.  He knows what’s best, and will always bring you through.
