Pastor Curt started a new series yesterday on a much needed topic that is revelant to non-believers and believers alike entitled When God Doesn’t Make Sense. We may not like to admit it,, but we all have inwardly, and maybe openly, at one time or another, thought God made some questionable choices. The old why do bad things happen to good people and good things happen to bad? Here’s the rub though, we’re questioning God! The pot questioning the Potter! The created questioning the Creator? How can finite minds begin to truly comprehend the infinite? God tells us through Isaiah, “My thoughts are not your thoughts nor your ways My ways … My ways are higher than your ways and My thoughts higher than your thoughts.” Paul relays in 1 COR 2 what Job said, “who knows the the mind of God,” and Job, if anyone, had a definite cause to question God … but he didn’t! Instead, Job said, “… though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him.” Do you have a Job like trust? These are strange times. With politics, Covid, and who knows what’s next, your faith could very well be tested in the days to come. Don’t take it personally, it happens, but remember, God never gives up on you, don’t you ever give up on God! Keep strong in your prayers and when all your requests are made, end with the most freeing words, yet Thy will, not mine, be done!I
