As we begin this next season of our publishing journey and are short on content, we will be sharing Verse of the Day devotions until we have enough article submissions to fill our editorial calendar. We hope you enjoy them! ~ Janel the CWP Editor-in-Chief
“‘For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,’ declares the LORD.”
— Isaiah 55:8 NIV
There are times when we want answers so badly that uncertainty feels unbearable. We thrash and rant and pout and cry. Each are understandable reactions to disappointment and a delay or postponement of plans.
We're human. We want to know why something happen, or hasn't. What are we supposed to do? What comes next? Uncertainty can be our nemesis. Especially when nothing makes sense.
We usually never get answers as quickly as we want. That doesn't mean asking is wrong. It also doesn't mean God abandoned us. And it doesn't mean we are incapable of understanding what's going on, but sometimes? We just don't get it..
The most honest idea we can hold onto is simply... I don't know. There's humility in that. And perhaps, even a little room to breathe while God works His plan to deliver the answers to our questions.
