"Oh, what a wonderful God we have! How great are his riches and wisdom and knowledge! How impossible it is for us to understand his decisions and his methods! For who can know what the Lord is thinking? Who knows enough to be his counselor? And who could ever give to him so much that he would have to pay it back? For everything comes from him; everything exists by his power and is intended for his glory. To him be glory evermore. Amen."-Romans 11:33-36
The context of this verse makes it all the more astounding. In the middle of unpacking the theology that the Christian faith would be built upon Paul pauses in praise, saying God is wonderful and mysterious and deserving of all glory. It seems that Paul is telling us that when our minds won't take us any further our hearts can revel in the wisdom and glory of God......Worship.
Now, that will preach!
Thanks to John Fischer for including these verses in this mornings devotional.
