My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways my ways, says the Lord. Isalah 55:8
When things go wrong, we tend to blame God, or not see what God has in plan. Many times God's ways are often unknown to us. God is always at work around us, eventho we not always see all the work he is doing, we should always keep this in mind.

...absolutely...on a similar note, and as an example, God recently slam-dunked me with a reality check...more often then not, these types of Divine interventions are used to pull us back into humbleness...or, at the very least, cause us to re-think ourselves in our surroundings...that sometimes stings...but it got my attention

Isa 55:6 Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:
Isa 55:7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
Isa 55:8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
Isa 55:9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Isa 55:10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
Isa 55:11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
Isa 55:12 For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
Isa 55:13 Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.
These verses means tht the thought of man is not higher than the thought of God. Man has no right to know the workks of God but God has all the right to know the work of a man because God is powerful than man. You should not blamed God if there are things which go wrong with you.

Absolutely. He is working in the lives of those who don't believe in Him, too.
Isn't' that beautiful? God will not forget anyone of us!
Peace!

I could just as easily say, Even though we do not see it. Isnt the Flying Spaghetti Monster at work in the lives of those we love? Just because you do not understand the ways of the FSM does not mean he is not at work.

I suppose you are right (for those who believe in god). It's like that passage in the bible that says there is no need to ask because god knows you have need of all these things.

No. Imaginary friends are neither at work nor to be blamed.
"Mysterious ways" is a cop out for personal responsibility and accountability.

More deluded than many.
It is time to put aside childish things and meet reality head on.

Thanks I needed to be reminded of that. I like your eagle avatar, it reminds me of God's perspective view. Sincerely, Rose
