VERSE OF THE DAY

Wednesday

Ecclesiastes 11:5 As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother's womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things.

I don't know.  I don't know! That has to be one of the hardest phrases for us to use. But when thinking about God and His ways, that's really all we can say. We know about God only what He in His grace has chosen to reveal to us. He is the Mystery of Mysteries. He is the supreme knowable Unknown. Yet what we do know of Him, what He has revealed to us in Jesus, is not only mighty and awesome, but loving and merciful.

PRAYER ... To You, O Lord God, I can only offer my wonder and awe. When I consider the universe in which our tiny planet spins its existence, I am humbled at Your vastness. But at the same time, I treasure Your nearness. You are a good far above all I know, but a God who is also near. Thank You for being accessible but not penetrable. Through Jesus I pray. Amen.
