| How? |
| From the desk in the room I am staying in this weekend I can read a text on the wall, with a rather interesting and perhaps unusual quotation from the Bible. It is only part of a verse and perhaps applied slightly out of context, yet it has really spoken to me. Here is what it says: |
| “THE LORD KNOWETH HOW … ” (2 Peter 2:9). |
| Sometimes I wonder “how” things are going to work out, and “how” this or that can really be the best and for blessing and good in the end. But thankfully I don’t need to know, because My Lord knows. He knows “how!” |
| Even Solomon with all his God-given wisdom had to acknowledge, “Man’s goings are of the Lord; how can a man then understand his own way” (Proverbs 20:24).So often we question God’s ways with us, but how good it is to simply submit, even when we don’t fully understand it. I am reminded of the chorus of a hymn we often sing: |
| “Farther along we’ll know all about it, |
| Farther along we’ll understand why.” |
