God's Ways are Perfect (1 Corinthians 1-2)

According to 1 Corinthians 1 and 2... The message of the Cross is foolishness to the lost, but wisdom and power to the people of God.  We are saved against any humanly impossible condition.  Humanly speaking God’s love for us cannot be reasoned since the wisdom of man cannot bring us to God (1 Corinthians 1:21).  Human wisdom is too weak to even comprehend God’s ways.  We who are born-again believers have cause to rejoice in this, that Christ did not die in vain but saved us beyond our understanding. 

 

It does not make sense that I who has a mental illness should be given the privilege to give the message I have been given.  Come on God there must be someone better than me among 8 billion?  But it is his delight to entrust his message to the weak because that is given in power.  Obviously, God must be looking at other aspect to qualify someone because to the world I was a nobody. 

No one can know a person’s thoughts except that person’s own spirit, and no one can know God’s thoughts except God’s own Spirit.  And we have received God’s Spirit (not the world’s spirit, so we can know the wonderful things God has freely given us. (1 Corinthians 2:11-12) 

 Therefore, I say to you by God’s Spirit: Don’t try to make sense of your life if God is your King.  Your life only makes sense to Him who is full of wisdom and has a plan for the universe and for you. 

 

Your life if God is in charge will never make sense to you but maybe after he has dealt with you.  Humans might be weak and make many mistakes, but God uses their mistakes even for his glory.   

You can certainly pass for a fool if you ignore God’s wisdom dealing in your life.  Don’t do it! 

As far as you are concerned God chose you with a plan in mind.  Don’t try to run ahead of that plan or complications may happen. 

God’s ways don’t make sense but as for me I choose the Cross.
