Adopt your Heavenly Father’s view!

Your Heavenly Father does not think, speak, or act like a human being does. He is perfectly unique and superior in His way of seeing things. His view of a situation is always just and imbued with holiness.
“‘For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.’” (The Bible, Isaiah 55:9)

Society offers you a variety of “frames of reference” to evaluate your family life, your professional life, and the emotions you feel. TV shows and magazines show you the model of the “perfect” life, the 10 infallible recipes for marriage, or the 15 steps to personal fulfillment.

There is another way to see and evaluate things—considering them through God’s perspective! Adopting the Lord’s view of a situation means choosing to believe that He is right and that He is for you, even when you don’t know all the ins and outs of what’s going on.

When questions come knocking at your door, don’t try to answer and solve everything…wait in quietness and trust. Consult the Lord; ask Him for His advice. Seek His counsel because His thoughts are not your thoughts, the Bible says.

God always knows how to comfort you, bring light to your situation, and set you on the right track. Trust Him and you will make the right decisions.
