And that no purpose of Yours can be withheld from You.
You asked, ‘Who is this who hides counsel without knowledge?’
Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand,
Things too wonderful for me, which I did not know
Job 42:2-3
So often we forget that our God is awesome and mighty and all-powerful, and so we have to remind ourselves that actually He can do all things. Ephesians 3:20 tells us that God is able to ‘do superabundantly, far over and above all that we [dare] ask or think [infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams]’.
So why do we ever doubt God? Why does our belief waver? Our Lord is King of all the universe and His plans will always succeed. So let’s stop doubting Him and start believing that in any situation we are facing, God is with us and He has great plans for us.
And if this is God's perfect will for us at this moment, can we not thank Him for it? If this is precisely where He knows we must be in order to know Him more fully and glorify Him with our lives, how can we complain? Do we really think we know our needs better than the all-knowing, all-loving Creator of the universe knows them?
