You've probably heard this verse used to shut you down

Hi ~
You’ve probably heard it before—maybe even in a moment of confusion or pain:
“God’s ways are higher than our ways.”
Usually it’s presented like this:
“You can’t understand what God is doing. Don’t even try. Just accept the mystery.”
But recently, through the teaching of Malcolm Smith and a fresh look at the context of Isaiah 55, I learned something new that filled my heart with joy.
Click below to for the article where I explore this passage—what it has meant to so many of us, and what it actually means when we see it in light of who our Lord really is:
"God’s Ways Are Higher Than Our Ways”: Is That Encouraging or Depressing?
Note: I've also recorded this article,
and you can listen to it at the top of the page.
I think you’ll be as encouraged as I was.
Learning His love, with you,
Rebecca
