how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out

"O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!" - Romans 11:33.

"
For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones." - Isaiah 57:15.

I just want this post to be one of worship to God and bowing to His will. I don't really quite know how to say it. God's plans are a mystery to me. I don't see everything that He can see and I don't know everything He knows. He has great plans that will be worked out in His time. I'm only a person and He is God. I wish I knew even a speck of what He knew. I wish I could see what only He can see. But He is the One Who lives in eternity, not me. And He is the One Who has wisdom indescribably beyond all other wisdom. I wish I could do all I wanted to do, but I don't know how to get it done. But He will work and it will happen His way. I'm excited, yet frightened to see what He has planned. I'll join Paul in saying:

"
O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out! For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor? Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again? For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen." - Romans 11:33-36.

Christian, be sure to put God first in your life and live closely with Him. Don't neglect your Bible, don't neglect prayer. Follow Him even in the boring-everydayness of things. Follow Him when your walking in victory through the promised land; and follow Him when you are stumbling, confused, without light, through the Valley of the Shadow of Death. Don't always insist on doing things your way, but do them His way. His way is not always easy, but His way is best. Have you wandered, Daughter or Son of God? Has doing things your way taken you off His path and brought you to an unfamiliar place? Then come back this moment. All you need to do is look to Him and He will bring you back. Get out of that dark, miserable place you're in and walk His paths again. Return to fellowship with the One Who loves you beyond description. Say with David:

"
Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile." - Psalm 32:1-2.

"
Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me...Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit." - Psalm 51:10-12.

Follow God; stay in fellowship with Him; and praise Him for His work that He is about to do, which you don't yet know.

Thanks sldr85, it is so true, only recently I've become aware of how scary God is in his greatness and godness, like he can do whatever he wants to do, he can make you and totally put you through "hell" of he wanted to. Praise God that he is a good God and loves us!!!

He is always watching our back and knows all our thoughts all the time, in the toilet, in the classroom, in the car, in an argument, in our bed, with our friends, everywhere, Praise God that he has shown mercy on us not because we're funny, attractive or smart, but because he is a good God and powerful beyond our knowledge. You are a great God!

Yes! Praise God! I should actually go do a little Bible reading right now. Good job making this topic, too. Very cool.

Sometimes I feel pretty useless... But I remember that God created me for a reason and has a purpose for me. It makes things better. :)
