Isaiah (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
At times during our lives, we can believe that our problems are bigger than us. We can feel overwhelmed in the flood of dissipation and concern. Worry besets us and can make us feel so small and helpless…
That is unless you have faith in God. If you can trust in the Lord as being bigger than all things in every corner of creation, than you can begin to feel easier that your Lord and Father in heaven is able to handle any size problem or number of problems which come against us.
Consider the words of (Isaiah 40: 10, 12-14, 18):
See, the Sovereign Lord comes with power, and his arm rules for him. See, his reward is with him, and his recompense is with him. Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, or with the breadth of his hand marked off the heavens? Who has held the dust of the earth in a basket, or weighed the mountains on the scales and hills in a balance?
Who has understood the mind of the Lord, or instructed him as his counselor? Whom did the Lord consult to enlighten him, and who taught him the right way? Who was it that taught him knowledge or showed him the path of understanding?
To whom, then, will you compare God?
If these words don’t sum up the awesome power of our God, I can’t imagine any which can! In the context of this passage, trials and tribulations which seem so unmanageable as they are unfolding can be put into prospective very quickly.
Nothing in existence is as great as the Lord, and His abilities to control situations for those who turn to Him for help is boundless! He made everything, He controls everything, and at no time are we left alone and without help. For “I will never leave you, I will never forsake you…” is his promise to us…(Hebrews 13:5).
So relax and know the peace which passes all understanding in your God, through faith in Christ Jesus our Savior!
