I don't understand....and that's fine?


Hey guys, just been thinking alot today....it is so far beyond my own comprehension why God would send His Son to die for me. I mean, I know that He loves me.....and that I was worth it to Him........but the part I can't understand is WHY? I am nothing. I have a wonderful life and I am very very blessed but I feel like I am so ungrateful all the time. I don't know, I guess I just know how I would feel if I did something like that, for HUMANITY, and they didn't always take me seriously. I would be quite an angry/sad guy. But that's the beauty of it all, I guess. God is love and that is what pure love looks like.

Isaiah 55: 8-13 says.... "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. As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is My word that goes out from My mouth: it will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. YOu will go out in joy and be lead forth in peace; the moutains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands. Instead of the thornbush will grow the pine tree, and instead of briers the myrtle will grow. This will be for the Lord's renown, for an everlasting sign, which will not be destroyed."

I love this verse because when I find myself in the very situation that I have found myself today..........................it tells me it is FINE that I feel this way. I am not supposed to understand God. And as much as it may bother me at times, that's the way it is. God is awesome and still He loves me. WOW!!!!
