‘For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways. Is 55:8
As Christians, praise to God is in our make-up. We are and should be filled with admiration and wonder. The Bible is full of God’s goodness and power. Some days our hearts are over-flowing, but sadly some days we take His love for granted.
Look at the many different names for God in the Bible, extoling His worth. The Psalmist and others can hardly contain their thoughts about Him. What we are not always so aware of, as we are told in this verse, is that God is not like us. God is holy, we are unholy. God is pure with unadulterated love, our love is so weak and feeble. God knows no sin, we are sinful beings beset by sin on every side.
How great God’s love for us must be, we are pretty unlovable, especially on our off days. We can wonder how He must love us enough to die for us. Paise the Lord that He does. .We do well to remember that His thoughts are not our thoughts and not His ways are not our ways. May these thoughts lead to deeper worship.
