33 O the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how inscrutable his ways! 34 “For who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been his counselor?” 35 “Or who has given a gift to him, to receive a gift in return?” 36 For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be the glory forever. Amen.

Most of us have moments when we'd love for God to explain why. Why did this happen? Why didn't that door open? Why does the path ahead seem so uncertain? Paul doesn't answer those questions. Instead, he pauses, reminding us that God’s ways are far beyond our own. There is a quiet freedom in admitting that I don't have to understand everything to trust the One who does. The more I discover about God, the more I realize that faith is less about having all the answers and more about resting on Him. If all things truly come from Him, exist through Him, and ultimately return to Him, then my life is safely held in hands that are both wise and loving.

I often wonder, where might God be inviting me to trust His wisdom instead of searching for an explanation?

Lord, when I don't understand what You are doing, deepen my trust in Your wisdom, Your love, and Your perfect timing. Amen.
