My thoughts and His thoughts

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the Lord. "As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts..." (Isaiah 55:8,9; The Bible)
"How precious to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them!"....... "Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts." (Psalm 139: 17 & 23; The Bible)

When things appeared to go wrong or at least not the way we wanted or expected, it is human to wonder why. How do we react? Do we sulk and be upset, be stoic and resigned?

When we have committed ourselves into the hands of God, we can rest assured that His thoughts are with us - with us for our good. That is why they are precious to us! His thoughts are also greater than our thoughts, reaching out far higher than where even our thoughts will not let us go. That is precisely why His thoughts are not our thoughts - our thoughts limit us, by our limited knowledge, out limited experience, our limited aspirations. But He knows more - about us and everything else that affects us, He aspires more - for us, than we can do ourselves!

In contrast are my thoughts - when at the point of testing, my thoughts are a wild field of anxiety! When in a fix, my thoughts can be deceptive - deceiving me, leading me to deceive others, my thoughts can be despondent and disastrous to my own well being.

Let His thoughts over-ride, for they are bigger and better. Let my thoughts fade away - for they are too small, too petty.
