Devotional – December 20, 2011

VERSE:
Psalm 147:5–Great is the Lord and abundant in strength; His understanding is infinite.

TRUTH:
I’m so glad God’s understanding is infinite because my understanding is not. At times it seems like there are more things I don’t understand than things I do. Things I thought I understood I find out later that maybe I really didn’t. The Lord knows all and understands all. He is able to handle and direct everything that comes. He is not surprised and He is in control.

RESPONSE:
Lord, I don’t understand and it’s driving me crazy. I want to know and see the big picture in my life. I want to feel in control, but I can’t. I surrender these desires to You knowing that You understand and are in control and I can trust in You.
