God’s ways are so intriguing to me…. His “ways” are so different than what would “seem” to be a “way” of His, according to earthly standards. Yet as we grow in relationship with Him, we’re able to recognize Him.
He gives us the “eyes” to see His ways and to understand His ways. Otherwise we wouldn’t be able to see it.
I was listening to a Kathryn Kuhlman message yesterday and she said this,
“Remember something…. noise is not the sign of power. Always know that.” – Kathryn Kuhlman
Isn’t it interesting how a “holy hush” can be so incredibly powerful and “say” so much? Seems unlikely and unexpected, doesn’t it?
At times God will allow me to recognize His ways in a way that’s beyond me. So often I find myself in the place of needing to be constantly reminded that His ways are always higher and often times unexpected. Lies can seem incredibly real.
Even though something may seem or appear a certain way in life, it doesn’t always mean it’s true. So often times it’s the opposite. That’s where trusting in His Word, and who He is so crucial.
I love this song by For All Seasons… such a great reminder and declaration of trust in Him.
Higher
You are maker of all
You were made by none
Even when the tide’s rising I’m deep in Your loveYou remain in control
With a steady hand
Even when the lies of this life start to make senseSo be my guiding light
When things aren’t black and white
I’ll trust in who You are
In who You areYour ways are higher, Your ways are higher
Than all of my way, far beyond what I can see
You’re higher, Your ways are higher
For now and always, far beyond what I can see
You’re higherYou have made Yourself known
Through the eyes of faith
The invisible is visible on the darkest of daysThere’s no place You won’t go
Nothing out of reach
When I make mistakes or walk away You never leave meSo be my guiding light
When things aren’t black and white
I’ll trust in who You are
In who You areYour ways are higher, Your ways are higher
Than all of my way, far beyond what I can see
You’re higher, Your ways are higher
For now and always, far beyond what I can see
You’re higherYou’re higher
You’re higher
Far beyond what I can see
You’re higherSo be my guiding light
When things aren’t black and white
I’ll trust in who You are
In who You areYour ways are higher, Your ways are higher
Than all of my way, far beyond what I can see
You’re higher, Your ways are higher
For now and always, far beyond what I can see
You’re higherSongwriters: Emily Hamilton / Josh Zegan / Jeff Luckey / Jeff Sojka

Spot on. So needed. A word well spoken feels like a hand reaching down and helping you back up on your feet when life knocks you down. Don’t ever let the enemy distract or discourage you from speaking . You’re too important for that. Agnore him .write totally awesome on a note or mirror because that’s so the truth . Remember?
