Psalm 114:3 The sea looked and fled, the Jordan turned back….
As I was reading Psalm 114 this morning, Isaiah 55:8 came to mind: “My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,” says the LORD. “And My ways are far beyond anything you could imagine.”
Psalm 114:4 …the mountains leaped like rams, the hills like lambs.
When we look at life—our hopes, dreams, realities—we see them all through our incredibly narrow human lens. God’s not limited to our parameters. Not only that, He wants so much more for us than we can even fathom for ourselves. Our fear comes in letting go of our “good” to make room for His “best.”
Psalm 114:5 Why was it, sea, that you fled? Why Jordan, did you turn back?
Lord, Thank You for this day and this scripture. Thank You for the reminder held in Isaiah 55:8. Thank You for having bigger plans and dreams for us than we could possibly fathom for ourselves. Grant us Your peace as we trust where You lead, even when it feels frightening and painful. Help us, always, to trust Your ways, which are far beyond anything we can imagine. Draw us closer. Amen.
Psalm 114:6 Why, mountains, did you leap like rams, you hills, like lambs?
Have a blessed day.
