So Much Higher



“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are My ways higher than your ways,
And My thoughts than your thoughts.”

—Isaiah 55:9 (NKJV)



Great and Glorious God,


There is still so very much that I don’t understand—but that’s okay!


Help me realize that I cannot possibly ever understand everything that You are doing or the reason behind the things that You allow to happen—that You simply expect me to trust that You love me and are always at work for my good.

Remind me that just like the heavens are much higher than the earth, the way that You do things, and even Your way of thinking about things, is absolutely perfect—a result of Your infinite wisdom and Your unhindered and limitless perspective.

At the same time, don’t let me forget that how I do things, and even the way I think about things, is greatly flawed—because of the incompleteness of my wisdom and my distorted and limited perspective.

Help me to trust that You will let me see things from Your perspective when and if the time is right—and give me the peace of mind to rest in Your love, in the meantime.


There is still so very much that I don’t understand—but that’s okay!


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
