Isaiah 40:25 “To whom will you compare me? Or who is my equal?” says the Holy One.
I’ve always believed that I can pray to God for silly things like close parking spaces or a break in the rain. These aren’t earth shaking requests. Sometimes God doesn’t grant them, but I ask because I know I can. He is my father. He loves me.
Isaiah 40:26a Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these? He who brings out the starry host one by one and calls forth each of them by name….
Sometimes, though, it feels like He is not listening, He is not giving me answers that I feel like I *need* in order to understand, in order to persevere. That’s frustrating. Sometimes I’m tempted to complain. Sometimes I *do* complain. But I have found that even then the Lord is at work. He is with me.
Isaiah 40:26b …Because of his great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing.
Precious Savior, You don’t owe me an explanation. You never promised me that You would explain all things on this side of the veil. You promised never to leave me, never to forsake me. Thank You for keeping Your promises, always, even when I don’t understand. Amen.
Isaiah 40:27 Why do you complain, Jacob? Why do you say, Israel, “My way is hidden from the Lord; my cause is disregarded by my God”?
Have a blessed day.
